Cardinal Framed Grouse Wing
FTHR-CARD-GR-1620
Cardinal Framed Grouse Wing is a radiant 16×20″ mixed-media piece by Jessica Somers. A vibrant red Cardinal is hand-painted directly onto a preserved Grouse wing, symbolizing the union of vitality and grounding, and serving as a beautiful reminder of love, passion, and spiritual presence.
The Teaching: A Visitor from Spirit
The Cardinal (Misko-bineshiinh) holds a special place in many hearts as a messenger from the Spirit World. When a Cardinal appears, it is often a reminder that our ancestors and loved ones are near. In Cardinal Framed Grouse Wing, this bright messenger is painted upon the wing of a Grouse—a bird deeply connected to the earth and the rhythm of the land. This pairing teaches us to stay grounded while remaining open to the guidance and love that surrounds us from the unseen realms.
The Art: Fire and Earth
Jessica Somers captures the brilliant “fire” of the Cardinal through vibrant red acrylics that stand out boldly against the earthy, mottled textures of the preserved Grouse wing. The contrast is stunning—symbolizing the spark of life (vitality) resting upon the foundation of nature. The organic curve of the wing adds a three-dimensional element that makes the bird appear ready to take flight.
The Product: Premium Framed Original
This original mixed-media artwork is mounted in a 16×20″ shadow-box frame. The depth of the frame accommodates the natural shape of the wing, protecting the feathers while creating an elegant display piece for your home.
