She Holds On

Oil On Linen Canvas

13 x 18cm 

It's always a question, 'what drew you in?", whether it's the photograph you took or the painting you made. I don't know if I can reliably tell you what it was about this bird, but I can attempt to describe how I felt. Her perseverance, her determination, can I really tell you I saw that reflected in her eyes, and in the way she held onto the branch? I can tell you that I believe I felt it, but I don't know if I can claim that those feelings were entirely her own, or whether they were just partially being projected. Regardless, her strength, I'd say that's what drew me in.
