Cool Garden

8X10 Original in a shadow box frame

Camano Jake stands poised in an enchanted garden, rendered in rich mixed media layers that blend paint, texture, and found elements. His glossy feathers catch subtle green and blue highlights, while a vivid blue eye gives him an alert, almost knowing presence. Draped from his beak and feet is a delicate silver chain, holding a warm amber pendant that glows like a hidden treasure.

Behind Camano Jake, a dreamlike botanical landscape unfolds—oversized flowers, stylized leaves, and shimmering metallic accents create a sense of magic and quiet storytelling. Raised details and reflective touches invite the viewer to look closer, blurring the line between illustration and object.

The piece balances darkness and charm, suggesting themes of curiosity, guardianship, and the beauty of small, secret wonders found in nature.

As with all my art, each piece is based on a fabric background. Some pieces may be similar but never identical with each piece being an original.
