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.

In this piece, a young hummingbird hovers at the mouth of a brilliant red blossom, set against the curling tendrils and luminous blooms of a passion vine. The composition balances precision and delicacy, capturing both the fleeting urgency of nectar gathering and the timeless elegance of the natural world.

A portion of proceeds supports large-scale land conservation through Art to Acres.
