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.

A brilliant male hummingbird arcs upward in a dramatic courtship display, while two females watch quietly from a lichen-covered branch, the scene alive with movement, color, and anticipation.
