"The Sun's Aura" - Day 7 of the #30daysofheART challenge
Original Drawing | Colored Pencil + Gold Leaf | 9" x 12" on Paper
The Sun’s Aura (Piece No. 7 in the 30 Days of Heart series) is a radiant, intuitive drawing that captures the quiet warmth of presence and the subtle shimmer of becoming. Created with colored pencil and hand-applied gold leaf, this piece features a golden orb—sunlike and luminous—floating within a soft expanse of blue sky and cloud-like movement.
There’s a looseness to the marks, a flow that reflects the way this piece was made: in a single day, as part of a creative challenge to release perfection and lean into heart-led expression. With no time to overthink or overwork, the drawing unfolded organically—alive with motion, spontaneity, and truth.
The gold leaf adds a dimensional glow that shifts with the light, like a sacred echo of the sun’s energy. It catches the eye and the heart, reminding us of the beauty in simply showing up, in letting the light move through us, unfiltered.
Whether you see The Sun’s Aura as a portal, a memory, or a metaphor for your own inner glow, it holds space for reflection and renewal. It’s a soft but powerful companion for spaces where creativity, rest, or quiet contemplation is needed.
