Shadows – Original Hand-Drawn Illustration
Dimensions: 9” x 12”
Medium: Colored pencil and ink on paper
Framed: Custom mahogany frame with Tru Vue Conservation Clear® Glass

In Shadows, a tiny winter wren perches quietly against the cool stillness of its surroundings—its delicate form contrasted by the powerful silhouette of a bear paw print cast in shadow. The moment feels fleeting and mysterious, inviting reflection on the balance between fragility and strength, presence and memory.

Created by hand using colored pencil and ink, this piece captures subtle textures and tones that bring both the wren and its imagined companion to life. Each mark is carefully layered to evoke depth, atmosphere, and quiet emotion.

An original work of art—not a print—beautifully framed in a custom mahogany frame and protected behind Tru Vue Conservation Clear® Glass. Shadows is a contemplative study in contrast, spirit, and the unseen connections that linger in nature’s quiet spaces.
