Print – Figure Series – “Focus on the Blessings”

“Focus on the Blessings”

In Focus on the Blessings, Tanja Lategan presents a serene, contemplative scene using her signature watercolour, pen, and ink technique. Rendered in soft shades of purple, a female figure sits with her hands gently covering her eyes, symbolizing the act of closing off the world to focus inward. Around her feet, delicately arranged Protea flowers bloom, their presence a reminder of resilience and beauty even in difficult times. The flowing purple tones evoke a sense of calm, encouraging stillness and prayer. Through her intricate mark-making, Lategan invites viewers to pause, be present with themselves, and reflect on the blessings that remain, even amidst challenges.
