An original mixed media and cold wax painting 11" x 14", House Wren is part of my Nesting Series.
 
It incorporates discarded and unusual items into a life-giving, safe space much like birds weave what they find into their building process. House Wren includes antique papers that are over 100 years old, gold leaf, acrylic paint, linen thread, and drawing into a captivating composition. 
 
House Wren ships framed in a floating frame with black interior and gold leaf edging.
