Love, Lifted
8 x 8 inches (20.3 x 20.3 cm)
Love, Lifted is an original textile mixed media artwork created with layered fabric, acrylic paint, and crystals on cradled birch panel. Part of my Quirky Birds series within the Whimsical Companions Collection — characters who exist joyfully on their own terms, built entirely from layered fabric with a personality all their own — this tender and joyful piece reflects the quiet strength of being held up by another, those moments of care and connection that help us rise.
Two bird companions share the composition in a moment of gentle, playful support — one standing perched atop the back of the other with the easy confidence of a friendship so sure of itself it needs no explanation. The upper bird is constructed from a soft pink floral fabric body alive with tiny blooms in pink, red, and blue, complemented by a golden floral fabric wing panel that adds warmth and pattern variety. Its most magnificent feature is a spray of iridescent crystal feather detail that fans out from the wing in a shimmering arc — catching light like a handful of scattered diamonds. Pen detail eyelashes frame its eye with a touch of glamour. The lower bird is larger and more grounded — its generous body constructed from layered white and soft blue fabric with a beautiful inset of multicolored botanical fabric in teal, green, magenta, and gold, giving it a sense of contained abundance and quiet richness. Bold orange fabric beaks give both birds a cheerful, purposeful expression. Pen detail legs stand them both in a lush hand-painted acrylic meadow of vibrant greens, wildflowers, and botanical forms, with crystals scattered throughout the flower heads like morning dew. A printed butterfly drifts to the left with quiet grace, and a bold fabric sunflower peeks from the upper right corner — warm, golden, and full of the same joyful energy that fills the entire composition. The background is a soft white embossed fabric with a subtle swirl pattern — refined and airy, the perfect world for two birds who hold each other up.
Balancing playfulness and tenderness, Love, Lifted reflects the beauty of support — how we rise together, one small act of care at a time. This is a piece for the collector who wants a home filled not just with art, but with feeling. This piece is part of the Whimsical Companions Collection.
