On Patrol
8"x10” original painting on canvas
 
A small guardian with long legs and a steady kind of attention, half curious, half watchful.
Soft, weathered neutrals meet a deep black ground, letting the bird come forward in layered color, pattern, and loose, expressive marks. It feels a little collected, a little imperfect, in the way things are when they’ve been lived with and loved.
There’s calm here, but also awareness. Like it’s noticing everything without needing to announce it.
Painted with textured, intuitive brushwork, this piece carries presence beyond its size. Meant for a shelf, a quiet corner, or a space that needs something subtle but alive.
Original. One of a kind.
