Uncaged: Grace
Story Behind The Art
Grace is a portrait of a woman being guided by a cardinal, a bird often associated with the presence of loved ones who have passed. I imagined this bird as a spiritual guide, perhaps a mother or grandmother offering wisdom from beyond what we can see.
Part of freedom is knowing that we don't have to find our way alone. Sometimes the guidance we need arrives through memory, nature, another person, or a quiet knowing inside ourselves. The cardinal reminds us that we can be guided while still choosing our own path.
This piece is part of my Uncaged collection, a series of feminine archetype paintings exploring freedom, the expectations placed on women, and the many emotions that come with becoming more fully ourselves.
Care
To ensure the longevity of your piece please frame right away. Natural light and exposure to air or water are the enemy of artwork. A glass frame (as opposed to plastic) is always preferred. Choose a spot on the wall out of direct sunlight. For original artworks I always suggest having them framed by a professional framer for a sealed back that further portects your artwork.
