One of over twenty original works created for Brave Baby Hummingbird (2023), this painting celebrates the delicate strength and ecological importance of these extraordinary birds.

The book written by New York Times bestselling author Sy Montgomery, traces the remarkable early life of hummingbirds—creatures capable of backward flight, sixty-one-mile-per-hour dives, and wingbeats exceeding sixty per second.

Through lyrical storytelling and luminous imagery, the book invites young readers to marvel at the complexity of nature and to cultivate a sense of empathy for the ecosystems that support life.
