Bluebird Theotokos

A female bluebird faces her three begging chicks, each with a gold leaf halo. This Theotokos image is inspired by Byzantine and Orthodox renderings of mother and child, and is meant to depict the devotion avian parents show for their young. The background is ombre fading sepia with gold flecks. Set in a subtle metallic woodgrain frame with velvet backing. SIZE: just over 11.5 x 17.5 inches, including frame (artwork is 6x12) MEDIA: Acrylic and Gold Leaf on panel, varnished. Framed and ready to hang. This piece is too large for international shipping - smaller versions will be available as embellished prints.
