My diptych in blue and gold, titled 'Daffodils in the Lake and Stars in the Milky Way,' draws inspiration from William Wordsworth's poem 'Daffodils.' With lines like 'A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze,' and 'Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way,' the artwork reflects the poet's profound connection with nature, finding beauty and solace in its embrace.
