A cardinal rises against a soft lavender sky, its wings catching the first light of day. Many people see cardinals as messengers, a sign that someone they love is near, and this painting holds that sense of quiet hope. The rich red of the bird glows against the cool sky, and layered palette knife work gives it real presence. The Messenger is a meaningful piece for a home or a gift of comfort.
