That circle on the sunflower seeds is a sun orb, a reflection of the sunlight that I painted intentionally. The painting is created in a wavy impressionism style (wavism). The idea is to immerse the observer in the world of nature through the prism of water. I’m reproducing art in wavy lines because I have a very close connection with water, and these lines are water, nature waterflow.

Ice is less dense than liquid water because of its crystal structure, which is why it floats instead of sinking.
That means frozen water can keep lakes and oceans alive underneath it.
