Blue on Blue 60 x 60
Measuring in at 60 x 60 with a 2.25 inch edge, the antique blue/green background shows all the layers and brushwork of the paint. Each bird sits a little differently — some perched, some in mid step, each turned a different way.
I start with a graphite drawing on the wood, then build the painting through about thirty layers — oils, washes, glazes, and metal leaf.

Care & Cleaning
To help maintain your artwork’s quality and longevity over time:
- Dust the surface gently with a soft, dry cloth

- Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents on the surface
- Keep in a dry, climate-controlled environment - but bathrooms are absolutely fine
- Handle with clean, dry hands
Why I make Art
"I believe that Art Makes Life Better. I grew up in rural South Carolina in a ramshackle farmhouse and I learned at an early age how fulfilling making artwork with own hands could be. All of my work is really a celebration of that - of noticing - taking in - and being surrounded by nature." - Joseph
