Description
A small warbler perches quietly amid an expansive field of luminous green in Serious Thing Just to Be Alive. Thick passages of palette-knife texture mingle with delicate lines and open space, allowing the tiny bird to hold its own within a world that feels much larger than it is. The title comes from Mary Oliver’s poem Invitation and its reminder of the wonder contained in simply being alive. Here, the warbler becomes an invitation to pay attention—to the ordinary, the beautiful, and the small lives unfolding around us every day.
