Aerial Prelude

$800.00

At the seam of ice and water, an eagle opens its architecture of flight—stillness tight as a bowstring, the breath before ascent.

Along the pale seam where ice yields to moving water, a raptor opens its full architecture—bars, vanes, and covert feathers describing a sweeping geometry of intent. The cool field amplifies every contour: the gilded beak, the anchored talons, the tensile span that holds stillness as if it were sound about to break. This composition is a study in thresholds—solitude pressing against motion, restraint coiled into readiness, a single figure commanding an expanse with the quiet authority of form.
As the first movement in a four-part study, it establishes the cadence of the series: measured breath, crystalline light, and the elegant tension that precedes flight. Offered as an exclusive fine art piece from the gallery, it invites collectors to linger at the brink where calm becomes power and the next beat of the wing becomes inevitable.
