A Falling Dove

ALEXIS KANDRA
A Falling Dove
acrylic on board
24" X 15.75"
2015

This painting is currently being exhibited at The Wild Bird Fund in New York City from March 4 - April 3, 2016 . Contact kandra.art@live.com to inquire about its availability.

This painting was inspired by a time when I helped to rehabilitate a young pigeon who had lead poisoning. I found the pigeon on the sidewalk unable to fly. After two weeks of medication, the pigeon recovered and was released. The composition was inspired by the care and love between a mated pair of pigeons. In this painting, there is the added care for a mate that is ill or injured.
