description: This piece suggests the intricate, elegant, and precise skills birds use inherently when landing. The graphite smudge of a tufted titmouse is superimposed over acrylic washes of primary colors. Overlaying both are watercolor-tinted strips of torn rice paper. Two patterns of nails, woven together by gray threads, suggest the engineering marvel of a bird's wings. These different media layers together represent the instant between the two worlds of motion and rest. Painted on wood. Signed. Ships ready to hang, unframed.
