Wished is a painting that holds the quiet energy of longing that lingers in the background. It’s something you don’t say out loud, but still carry in your chest.

This bouquet feels like that kind of wish: pale lavender, warm yellow, soft white, and grounded green, all moving together in loose, painterly rhythm. The black vase anchors it like a shadow of something almost forgotten. Around it, a wash of mint, blue-gray, and near-translucent neutrals hold the liminal space.

The brushstrokes are confident but unguarded. The piece feels open, like something still becoming. Not everything is defined. Not every edge is closed. It’s all the things you almost said. All the versions of your life that still sit quietly in the near distance.

Perfect for:

* Bedrooms, writing rooms, or soft corners of the home

* Collectors who value emotional subtlety and open space

* Pairing with works that explore tenderness, memory, or change

* Anyone who still believes in the power of a quiet wish
