his painting features Alabama Indian Pink, a rare wildflower endemic to Bibb County, Alabama, where it grows in the unique Ketona dolomite glades. A member of the gentian family, this small pink flower is shown just as it begins to open—captured in early summer with a shallow depth of field to create soft bokeh among the saturated green leaves. As a species found nowhere else in the world, it faces threats from habitat loss, including quarrying. Painted with professional artist-quality acrylics on deep gallery-wrapped canvas, the piece is varnished for protection and comes ready to hang—no framing needed.
