"Celebrate"

Original Mixed Media Painting

Some kind of chicken. Maybe a duck. Definitely excited. "Celebrate" captures a wildly enthusiastic fowl — mid-crow and fully committed to whatever this day brings. It’s the kind of energy we all wish we had in the morning. Joyful, odd, and ready to go.

• 6 x 6 inches

• Birch wood panel with a 7/8 inch profile 

• Encaustic wax medium, paint

• Artist signature and title on reverse

• Ready to hang

Upon close inspection, you will notice surface imperfections — these are intentional and an essential part of working with encaustic wax. Each mark and texture adds character, making every painting completely unique. I often revisit favorite themes and motifs in my work, but no two pieces are ever exactly alike.

While the wax is fully cured and stable, it remains a delicate surface and can be susceptible to gouging or scraping. Please handle with care.

Do not hang in direct sunlight, as heat can affect the wax medium.
