Layers of cold wax, oil, and charcoal painted expressively with an emphasis on texture and expressive mark making revealing the history of the piece and the fragility of the bird. The Blackbird is silent and still amidst the reeds of a bog, on a gray day, waiting for the right time to fly away. Inspired by the lyrics of "Blackbird" by Paul McCartney.
