But for Alice Gavin Atashkar, it is nothing less than a signal: the sun is turning back towards us. The Catkins Have Arrived captures that precise, hopeful moment, inspired by walks along Dollis Valley in North London where fallen trees become perches for egrets, coots and herons. Painted in acrylic on linen and presented as a diptych in two deep grey floating canvas frames, the two panels work together as a continuous composition, the light breaking through bare canopy with growing warmth. Like all of Alice’s work, it invites the viewer into what she calls a ‘meditative space’ - a place of slower looking that rewards patience. It performs particularly well in homes that value a sense of calm and connection to the natural world; a reading room, a hallway, or a bedroom where you want something that changes quietly with your mood. For collectors looking for a framed, ready-to-hang original that bridges the gap between nature painting and interior design, this is a strong choice. Offered as a pair; frames are included.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist: Alice Gavin Atashkar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear: 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e120cm x 160cm (60cm x 80cm x 2)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium: Acrylic on Linen\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFramed: Framed in 2 x deep grey floating canvas frames\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"One of a Kind","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58026693689669,"sku":null,"price":1450.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/3305\/1717\/files\/1B5A265E-E29D-4D02-B2C6-3970730FCAD3.png?v=1780048691","url":"https:\/\/oneofakindstudio.co.uk\/products\/the-catkins-have-arrived-diptych","provider":"One of a Kind","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
