Description:
This work is a serene allegory of pure love and its creative power, captured in a symbolic, contemplative composition aligned with its title—Love, simply.

At the heart of the canvas lies a radiant heart, glowing with inner incandescence. Surrounded by a warm pink aura, it emanates soft white rays that pierce through the lavender-gray background, illuminating the entire scene. This heart symbolizes love as a primal force—both a source of warmth and a generator of life-sustaining energy.

In the lower register, a cluster of white flowers—possibly daffodils or lilies—reach upward, blooming toward the light. They represent nature, beauty, and life itself, nurtured and enlivened by the heart’s loving energy.

The contrast between the cool background and the heart’s warm glow emphasizes love’s central role as a life-giving and harmonizing force. The overall atmosphere is one of peace, purity, and gentle emotional resonance.
