This watercolor bookmark was inspired by a quiet moment wandering through Ogunquit, Maine, while searching for creative inspiration. Strawberry shortcake (Amanda’s favorite) was displayed in a shop window, its simple elegance catching her eye and stopping her in her tracks.
Against the backdrop of a coastal town known for its art, light, and lingering summers, the dessert felt like a small celebration of the season itself. Fresh strawberries, soft cake, and whipped cream echo the sweetness of a Maine summer day, unrushed and familiar. This painting captures not just a dessert, but the joy of noticing small comforts while exploring a place that invites you to slow down and look closer.
