"Embracing Hibernation"

As my own sheltering at home passes the eight month mark now, painting this piece has been both blessing and therapy...

With winter approaching, it's been a reminder to appreciate all the small comforts which sustain me; a knitted shawl, a stack of books, a hot cup of tea, a cozy blanket (see detail)...

We can learn a lot from our friends in the natural world, who live in season, and adapt to circumstances, settling in for what could be a long winter, but still mindful of the promise of spring ahead (another detail)...


Painted in acrylics on a 12" x 36" gallery canvas, the sides of the piece are painted a deep midnight blue, so there's no need for a frame. Not limited to just wall hanging, I think this one would also look wonderful on a door (I love hanging art on doors!). 

 

It's signed at the bottom, and will come with a certificate of authenticity. This one was truly a labor of love, and my hope is that all the positive energy infused in its creation will bless someone's home through this difficult time, and for years to come.

I'm accepting offers this weekend via email (carolee@kingofmice.com), beginning at $895, with shipping dependent on location.

Thanks very much for taking a peek, and I hope you and yours are staying safe and well!
