Rooted

Rooted is an oil pastel artwork about looking beyond what is visible. Above the soil, the tallest and most colourful plants appear the most abundant, yet beneath the surface they remain barely rooted. In contrast, the smaller, humbler plants extend deeply into the earth, grounded by unseen strength. The work reflects how people cannot be judged by outward appearance, status, or display. What seems impressive on the surface may lack depth, while quietness and modesty may hold deep resilience. Through roots, vegetables, and soil, the piece reveals the hidden inner life that sustains true growth.

High-quality 5×7 art print on textured fine art paper appears like the original painting maintaining vivid colours and sharp details.
