Introduction
Captured the moment when the morning sunlight spills into the room, this poetic work revolves around tranquility, the everyday, and the perception of time. Julie Freeman delicately depicts the golden light filtering through the gaps in the curtains, and how this light casts soft yet distinct shadows in the space.
The objects in the composition seem ordinary—table lamp, potted plants, small jars—but under the illumination of light, they appear to acquire a soul, with their shadows performing a second scene on the wall. This is a manifestation of inner peace, allowing the viewer to feel the sacredness within moments of daily life. Freeman's creation not only portrays objects but also depicts time itself—the morning light is fleeting, momentary, while the painting captures that moment eternally.
