This painting continues my exploration of songbirds and their quiet, instinctive rhythms—their stillness, their movement, and the natural poetry of their interactions. Three dark birds move lightly across a field of blended, earthy tones, their suspended motion creating a sense of balance and fleeting grace. Built through layered painting, scraping, and soft abrasion, the surface hovers between clarity and abstraction, and is completed by a handcrafted walnut frame with a gold-leaf face.
