The Embrace of a Summer Morning is a digital embroidery that captures the moment a window is opened at the start of a summer’s day in the UK. The air is still cool, but the light has shifted, and warmth is beginning to arrive. Birds move and call across the space, their presence scattered through leaves, flowers, and branches. Everything feels lightly held, balanced between night and day. The composition gathers this pause—when colour is fresh, sound is gentle, and the day has not yet asked anything of you. It is about anticipation rather than arrival: the quiet certainty that the weather will lift, the light will strengthen, and a long, generous summer day lies ahead.
