On my morning walks through Davis, West Virginia -- my dad's town -- the Indigo Buntings called from somewhere in all that green, close and constant and completely hidden. Then one morning, there he was: that impossible blue, right in front of me. The bird that doesn't quite seem real until it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the piece that holds the whole feeling of the collection for me. Two of them in a field of milkweed -- one steadfast, surveying the field, the other swooping in to show off that unforgettable blue -- while hummingbird moths drift through the blooms and the buttercups catch the light below. I painted it the way I paint all of these: wet-on-wet, in layers, with no drawing first, just sketches and instinct and years of learning these birds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is my favorite piece in 'Songbirds \u0026amp; Friends', and probably the most personal thing in it. An original watercolor on paper, one of a kind -- a quiet West Virginia morning, held still.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"hollywach","offers":[{"title":"Unframed","offer_id":42947566469182,"sku":"INIDI-BUNT-0626035","price":4600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Framed","offer_id":42947566501950,"sku":"INIDI-BUNT-0626036","price":5200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/9488\/4926\/files\/1Indigo-Bunting-Hummingbird-Moth-Milkweed-Buttercup_Nature_s-Guides_Watercolor_Holly-Wach_20x40_medium_e1c3a779-5a17-42fa-b4db-584f27ca1e8a.jpg?v=1782329038","url":"https:\/\/hollywach.com\/products\/indigo-bunting-hummingbird-moth-milkweed-buttercup-natures-guides","provider":"Holly Wach Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
