Mail Art South Florida
My latest piece, "Osprey", is a 5" x 7" mixed media work on watercolor paper created using a gel plate technique. This artwork is part of my ongoing commitment to the #MailArtMovement—a global exchange of creativity by mail that allows artists to share personal pieces of home with the world. With every piece I send, I aim to spotlight the beauty, culture, and unique natural elements of my hometown, and "Osprey" is no exception. Painted in rich textures and layered mediums, it’s a tribute to one of South Florida’s most iconic and awe-inspiring birds.
Ospreys are a familiar sight along our waterways, soaring above the coastlines or perched proudly beside their massive nests. Often referred to as “our eagles,” these majestic birds are expert fishers, often seen diving for mullet or other fish to feed their young. Their presence is powerful, symbolic of both strength and nurturing, and witnessing them in their element is always a reminder of the wild beauty threaded through our everyday lives. Through "Osprey", I wanted to capture that feeling and share a small piece of it with someone, somewhere, through the simple magic of mail.
