Bathing in Light by Carolyn Reynolds is a luminous meditation on serenity, movement, and the quiet radiance of the natural world. Delicately rendered hummingbirds drift across a field of hand-applied gold leaf, their iridescent wings contrasting beautifully with the warm, glowing surface beneath them. As light touches the gilded background, the painting shifts subtly throughout the day, creating a living dialogue between illumination and form.

Reynolds’ refined technique—layering oil over precious metal—invites viewers into a moment of stillness, where time seems to pause and brightness expands. This work embodies her gift for transforming simplicity into transcendence, offering collectors a timeless piece that brings both elegance and a sense of gentle uplift to any space.
