Inspired by the elongated lines and expressive movements of these soaring skydancers, the Oh, to Fly! collection celebrates the timeless elegance and ethereal freedom of cranes, herons, egrets, and raptors. Using a loose technique and economy of line, I aim to capture the majestic presence of these grand creatures without overstepping their grace or overworking the details. With a nod to Eastern Sumi-é, these freely drawn bird watercolor original art portraits are created alla prima, freehand without pre-drawing, capturing exceptional moments in time that remind us to spread our wings and embrace life's fleeting beauty.
