Jewel of the Canopy (Joya de la Selva)

Jewel of the Canopy

A burst of rainforest brilliance captured in oil and leaf. In Jewel of the Canopy, Claudia sets a radiant toucan against a lush green backdrop, its beak blazing with tropical fire—orange, gold, and midnight blue. Metallic accents ripple across the foliage, echoing sunlight breaking through dense canopy. The painting shifts with perspective: jungle shadow to jeweled light, concealment to revelation.

Artist note

Jewel of the Canopy was born from a memory in Costa Rica, standing beneath the towering trees of a national forest. The toucan appeared like a living jewel, perched in the canopy where light and shadow played endlessly. To me, it embodies the rainforest’s spirit—resilient, vibrant, and sacred. The gold leaf shines as a reminder: the forest itself is the treasure we must protect.” — Claudia
