Created in Bozic’s signature technique of diluted acrylic on maple panel, this original painting was commissioned for Brave Baby Hummingbird (Simon & Schuster, 2024).

Beyond its role in the book, it stands as an independent work of art, embodying the fragility, resilience, and wonder that define Bozic’s larger practice.

Against a wash of soft sky, a hummingbird flashes iridescent green as it hovers near a glass feeder, a moment that bridges the human-made and the wild in quiet balance.
