Nectar (2021)

Acrylic on Canvas

24” x 36”

With this painting, I want to create a soft space of hive minded thinking and feeling. With the powerful wise owl looking directly at you, I want you to feel as if you are one with this creature, and nature. With the sudden occurrence of a wave rising to fall, I want to bring you into the present moment this takes place. Hummingbirds and bees sometimes compete for nectar from flowers. With illustrating them both I want to show that the way we compare, compete is natural in nature and in ourselves. Hummingbirds also represent lightness and joy; so even with all the competition and natural survival instincts, we can find joy in the hive of the world still.
