Original artwork description:

"Fame Is A Fickle Food" presents two iridescent crows in motion against a vibrant backdrop of orange stripes and golden spirals. The watercolor medium lends itself beautifully to the shimmering feathers, where hues of blue and violet create a stunning contrast with the structured, fiery background. This original watercolor painting captures the eye with its exquisite detail and symbolic depth. Inspired by a line from Emily Dickinson, the title speaks to the transient nature of fame, a theme that resonates through the contrasting elements within the piece. The balance of realism and abstraction, order and chaos, reflects the tension between the enduring and the fleeting. This artwork is a captivating exploration of symbolism through the lens of contemporary and figurative styles. This medium-sized piece is ideally suited for spaces where you want to introduce a touch of contemplation and color. It would be a thought-provoking addition to a study, living room, or creative space. The bird symbolism and evocative imagery invite repeated viewing and reflection. Add this striking example of corvid art to your collection and bring a conversation piece into your home. REF 100
