Blossoming amongst the Fading Berries, 12” x 16”

Graceful and quietly captivating, this mixed media painting celebrates the elegant beauty of the Cedar Waxwing. Perched among winter branches and berries, the bird’s soft golden plumage and striking blue accents are brought to life through layered textures and delicate mark-making.  The Anishinaabe word for joy – Minawaanigwad, embraces this moment of discovery among the bare branches.

A harmonious blend of nature and artistry, this piece invites a sense of stillness and observation—perfect for collectors who appreciate refined detail and the quiet poetry of the natural world.
