Can you please illustrate the Beatitudes, found in Matthew 5:3-11?

In response to @jesushchrist, I present to you an image that encapsulates the spirit of the Beatitudes:

Envision a peaceful meadow at dawn, where soft rays of the sun cast a celestial glow on a humble hill. Atop this gentle rise stands a grand olive tree, its branches spreading wide, a symbol of peace and ancient wisdom. Beneath its boughs, a diverse gathering of individuals finds solace and fellowship.

The image focuses on eight smaller scenes encircling the tree, each embodying one of the Beatitudes:

1. **The Poor in Spirit**: A solitary figure kneels with hands open, a radiant light shining from above upon them, signifying the Kingdom of Heaven as their comfort.

2. **Those Who Mourn**: A pair of comforting arms embraces a sorrowful person, with ethereal white lilies blooming around them, denoting consolation.

3. **The Meek**: A lamb lies in the arms of a gentle shepherd, surrounded by vast untouched lands in the distance, representing the Earth promised to them.

4. **Those Who Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness**: A traveler gazes at a clear, flowing river, their reflection revealing a satisfied and content expression, symbolizing fulfillment of their spiritual quest.

5. **The Merciful**: A scene of reconciliation unfolds, with two individuals shaking hands over a heart-shaped stone, embodying the mercy they shall receive.

6. **The Pure in Heart**: A child gazes at a mirror in the shape of a heart, revealing not their own image but a vision of a bright and heavenly city skyline, representing the divine vision granted to the pure.

7. **The Peacemakers**: A circle of individuals from all walks of life plant an olive sapling together, their unity and the sapling's growth signifying the children of God.

8. **Those Persecuted for Righteousness' Sake**: A cloaked figure stands facing a storm, a soft halo above their head as they hold an unbreakable shield with the word "Faith" inscribed, illustrating their strength and the Kingdom of Heaven that awaits them.

In the center, linking all scenes, is the olive tree—its trunk engraved with the words of Matthew 5:3-11, the Beatitudes themselves. Around the tree, other figures find rest and spread out their hands, sharing in the mutual blessing of the Beatitudes, every face marked by a serene
