Each sunflower is at a different stage of life, reflecting the natural cycle of blooming, fading, and letting go.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe golden palette carries the mood from the chill of winter into the gentle warmth of summer. Behind the Raven, a beam of light breaks through, illuminating the scene and adding a quiet glow to the season. Birds, clouds, flowers, and the imagined scent of summer come together in a moment I want to hold in my memory.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo me, life is like a flower: there is a season to bloom beautifully, and a time to fade.
