Delicate orchid blooms float on graceful stems against a dreamy periwinkle background, their translucent white petals touched with soft mauve and burgundy at the centers. Nancy Iida captures the ethereal quality of orchids with loose, impressionistic brushwork—each petal rendered in quick, confident strokes that suggest form and movement rather than rigid detail. The textured background of cool blues and lavenders creates a sense of atmosphere and depth, while the deep purple vase grounds the composition with rich, saturated color. Olive green leaves provide an organic contrast to the delicate blooms above. "Just Because" celebrates those spontaneous gestures of beauty and kindness that need no reason or occasion—the flowers we give ourselves or others simply because they deserve something lovely.
