This striking resin circle abstract captures the intricate tapestry of temporal flow through Herd's masterful technique. The piece features deep cobalt blues interwoven with rich burgundies and metallic golds, creating patterns reminiscent of ancient geological formations or cosmic events frozen in time.

Herd's artistic practice spans multiple mediums, including resins, oils, acrylics, and wood, through which she creates evocative pieces that capture moments of material fusion suspended in time.

Her experimental approach combines vivid color palettes with dynamic textures, creating pieces that reflect both the delicate details and bold juxtapositions of the natural world.
