Fall Blue Jay – Original oil painting

$800.00

In The Autumn Sentinel, the blue jay rises like a bright, defiant note against the warm hush of fall. Perched among leaves that burn in shades of ember and gold, it stands alert, as if guarding the last color before winter claims the branches. The soft green field and pale sky behind it create a gentle contrast, allowing the bird’s vivid blues to feel almost ceremonial. This is a moment of stillness and pride — a stately creature holding its place in the turning season.

This is 11″ by 14″, 1.5″ deep, oil on wood with painted sides

Description

Autum Sentinel

There is a quiet authority in the jay’s posture, a sense that it understands the rhythms unfolding around it. The autumn leaves gather like a tapestry of memory, each one echoing the warmth that is slowly slipping away. Against this backdrop, the bird becomes a keeper of the moment, a witness to the beauty that lingers before the cold arrives. Its presence feels both intimate and symbolic, reminding us that even the smallest guardians can hold the spirit of a season.

Endangered Species – Canvas Print Triptych Set

Arts & Crafts
$500.00
Original oil painting triptych sold.  The price shown is for a triptych print set on canvas (three separate prints). -  The first whooping crane hatchling born in Louisiana since 1938 is more than a milestone; it is a breath restored to a story that nearly ended. In this triptych, the cranes move through light and marshland like living prayers, each panel holding a chapter of a species’ long journey back from silence. The tiny hatchling—once front‑page news, once unthinkable—becomes the heart of the piece, a symbol of resilience so delicate it feels almost holy. This painting doesn’t just honor the moment; it preserves the hope that rose from the marsh after seventy-eight years, reminding us that even the rarest lives can return when land, patience, and love make room for them.
