I know so many people feel the same way — they represent transformation, lightness, and freedom. That’s why this painting is one of my favorites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"317\" data-end=\"705\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"158\" data-end=\"179\"\u003eThe Long Becoming\u003c\/strong\u003e Series for me, explores transformation that unfolds slowly, after extended periods of stillness and waiting. Shaped by shared human emotional states—loneliness, oneness, uncertainty, and renewal—and informed by my lived experience as a female immigrant, these works reflect moments when what has been held quietly begins to move. Through intuitive layers of color, texture, and material, each piece captures a threshold between endurance and release, presence and becoming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"317\" data-end=\"705\"\u003eIn this \u003cstrong data-start=\"325\" data-end=\"372\"\u003emixed media painting with acrylic and resin\u003c\/strong\u003e, I created a dreamy azure path where 3D butterflies seem to come alive, fluttering just above the surface. Each butterfly is carefully crafted, with wings that cast playful shadows on the textured background. The resin adds a luminous finish, making the colors feel deep and glowing, almost as if the painting itself is breathing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"707\" data-end=\"938\"\u003eWhen I was working on this piece, I wanted it to feel like stepping into a space where reality and dreams gracefully intertwine. To me, it’s not just a painting — it’s a reminder of growth, hope, and the beauty in transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"940\" data-end=\"1108\"\u003eI imagine it bringing a sense of calm and wonder to any space, whether it’s a cozy corner, a bright living room, or even a studio where you want inspiration close by.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maryam Mohi Fine Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43354502889555,"sku":null,"price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/9240\/9171\/files\/Screenshot_20251231_174411_Gallery.jpg?v=1767396585","url":"https:\/\/maryammohi.com\/products\/mixed-media-butterflies-painting-the-long-becoming-ii-copy","provider":"Maryam Mohi Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
