Sandy Hokanson: Trust - American Robins - (12 x 12 Framed Print)

In this original illustration titled "I TRUST YOU - AMERICAN ROBINS" a male American Robin stands in front of a female in her nest hidden under a leafy canopy. He's prepared to defend her against all threats and she has put her trust in him at this vulnerable time. This image is available as a note card (blank inside), a signed 12" x 12" shrink-wrapped print, a framed print (black frame) or a 16" x 16" signed metal print. 

Poem on the back of note cards reads:

i trust you
on sunny days
and through the darkest night
i know you're there for me

Sandy: "For many years I painted in a realistic style using acrylics or watercolors.  Now I prefer the challenge of focusing less on every feather and more on creating a clean design of each bird." "Some of my finished works are created by making detailed drawing using permanent inks which are then scanned into my computer. Others are hand drawn directly into the computer using either a mouse or a special pen and pad.  Next I'll create a unique palette of colors to layer over the drawings.  Each color is a separate layer - which means some pieces can have up to 25 layers or more. The end result is a crisp, graphic illustration."
