One-of-a-Kind | 4" x 4" Artwork on a 4" x 4" Archival Multimedia Panel
Have you ever watched a hummingbird perch and felt like it was aware of you too?
Maybe you’ve had this experience like I have. I love seeing these little birds check me out while I’m checking them out as well.
Growing up, I’d either sit at the kitchen window or outside and watch them land on the same little branch near our feeder. They’d flick their wings, glance around, and look you right in the eye like they were saying, “Yeah, I see you too. I think you’re interesting as well. I’m going to come over there in a minute and see exactly what you’re all about.” Even as a kid, I noticed how confident they were. Small, but completely okay with who they are and what they had planned on doing throughout their day.
"Desert Opal" captures that moment. A Rufous Hummingbird, alert and perched, thinking about checking out everything around it, with feathers shimmering in soft blue, red, and opalescent green. The flowers bloom beneath as beautiful camouflage, framing the scene with color.
This piece is about personality. The kind you can feel. It’s that moment between you and the bird, when curiosity meets energy and you both know it won’t last long.
Created with meticulous precision using professional-grade color pencils on archival pastel panel, this one-of-a-kind original is a timeless addition to any fine art collection.

Calm with an Edge
Stillness doesn’t always mean rest. Sometimes it means readiness.
This Rufous Hummingbird has settled for a breath, not for long.
"Desert Opal" glows with soft and layered hues. The feathers catch flashes of teal and flame, all held in a posture that’s quiet, but never uncertain.
This is the kind of pause that reminds you the next moment is already on its way.
