Playfulness flourishes when we return to balance.

Even the most lively spirits need a moment to pause. The Joy of Stillness captures a rare, quiet moment of the North Island robin—known for its playful and inquisitive nature—as it finds perfect balance atop a delicate stack of stones.

As I painted this piece, I was drawn to the contrast between energy and rest, movement and stillness. The soft yet vibrant colours reflect the robin’s lighthearted spirit, while the background whispers of unseen rhythms that guide us back to centre. This little bird reminds us that joy isn’t just found in movement—it also lives in the gentle spaces in between, the moments where we breathe, reset, and prepare for what comes next.

Part of my Finding Centre series, this painting is an invitation to embrace those fleeting pauses, to find delight in stillness, and to trust that balance is always within reach. May The Joy of Stillness bring a sense of lightness and harmony into your space, reminding you that even in rest, the dance continues.

This mixed-media painting is 10x14 inches.
