Juno Beach, Florida is a beloved destination for its crystal clear waters and relaxing scenery. When I visited for the first time, it became a transformative experience. The calm that came with the city, the warm sun, beautiful shells, I just fell in love. What I have drawn is a memory. On the walkway to the beach, there were dozens of mangrove trees that shaded the sand around a spotlight of sunshine that held a patch of grass. It seemed like a portal to another world. There were beautiful flowers sprung, and what seemed like hundreds of dragonflies that flew around me. I wanted to remember such a special moment by drawing a segment of it. I drew a realistic dragonfly filled with vibrant shades to represent the whimsy and beauty of their essence, along with using more solid colors on the leaves to contrast the detailed insect.
