A Bird Called Focus
This is another of my art friends. His name is Focus because that is how he came to be, with my conscious focus on each brushstroke. As I imagined Focus into being I decided where each brush stroke should go and then laid it down…and left it alone. The power of Focus is that he is not blended into a muted pastel life. Focus has become my painting talisman. He has the pride of an eagle, the luster of a peacock and the focus to live a soaring colorful life.
He is showing along with the “Painted Raven” at ONLINE-12th Annual 6” Squared Exhibition and Sale
