Winter FriendA rare white cardinal sits on his perch waiting for Spring Oil on canvas by Robynn Stewart Size: 12x12 About Robynn Stewart My intention is to evoke a sense of peace and calm and maybe slowing down the "March of Time"

All that we perceive is just a fleeting moment in time

Carved from local stone

Color adds another dimension to a traditional pencil drawing

Slowing down and giving our minds a free reign heightens our cerebral journey

I sometimes used mixed media in between the layers of paint to provide depth and texture
