WEAVING BIRDS 38x55cm acrylic on wood. Tjørnuvík 2019
Once upon a time there were some steep islands that raised their presence from the ocean sculpted by the wind and waves.
The first sailor who found this land was captivated by a great mysterious sight, the shapes, the clouds created around the tops of these elevated grounds.
He finally decided to walk up to the highest peak above the clouds to see for himself if he could solve the enigma. When he reached the very top, he looked over in amazement to discover the Weaving Birds were working hard turning the sky into these beautiful shapes. Their flight was gracious, sometimes fast and others pondering, following the shapes the wind had sculpted into the land.
