A whooping crane is just taking off to
cross the wide emptiness before him. He comes from a place of sunlit
possibility, and his destination appears potentially much darker.
Does he know this? Is he taking a conscious risk, or is this just an
illusion? Maybe the crane is flying at sunset, leaving a world that
he knows will only continue to grow darker for a world where the
skies are blue and only a little cloudy.
I felt a strange hope drawing
this, like I was taking flight to go on a great adventure. I didn’t
know what the adventure was yet, but I hoped my future would be one
where I was no longer afraid of exploring my creativity.
This listing is for a fine art print on archival matte paper. The print continues to the edges with no border and ships rolled from my print on demand company. To flatten, place a heavy book on top for a day or two. Please choose your size below, either 6x6 or 8x8 inches.
The original drawing is available here.
