“Velvet Flight” – Statement Piece

$3,800.00

This embellished edition of Velvet Flight transforms the original image into a tactile, dimensional work - one that must be experienced physically to be fully understood. Layers of hand-applied acrylics rise from the surface, catching light and shadow, introducing movement that shifts as the viewer moves.

The hummingbird and lily emerge from a richly worked field of texture - thickened, scarred, and luminous - suggesting time, weather, and persistence. What was once an image becomes an object; edges are sculpted, surfaces disrupted, and the quiet intimacy of the scene is intensified through touch.

This embellished work is individually finished by hand, ensuring that no two are ever identical. The gesture, pressure, and rhythm of the artist’s hand are visible throughout, making this piece a singular expression rather than a repetition.

Framed and presented as a statement, This edition occupies a space between print and painting - where precision meets intuition, and the act of embellishment becomes an extension of the original movement of flight.

Framed 24” x 36”
