{"product_id":"melody-whooping-crane","title":"Melody, Whooping Crane","description":"\u003cp\u003eMelody\u003cbr\u003eAcrylics\u003cbr\u003eOn a 52x21.5 wood panel \u003cbr\u003efrom a disassembled piano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI made two new transitional paintings, Melody and Harmony. I knew I wanted to paint two Whooping Cranes on similar sized panels from disassembled pianos. I love the mating dance they do- so poetic and graceful. That was my original concept.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI painted the two cranes with only rings of water as the background environment. They were nice but seemed too stark for the emotions I wanted. I wanted a feeling of plenty, joy, music and poetry. So I decided to add the environment where they live, using piping bags and palette knives for juicy texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a similar concept to the Huntsville Botanical Gardens painting of 2 birds in their flower environment. I like the lush extra of it. I want to explore this direction for a while, pushing the textures and colors. Yay for a new obsession!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese paintings can be sold separately,  this listing is for 1 painting, Melody.  The second painting, Harmony, is listed separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Shipping is included in the listed price. \u003cspan\u003eThe art is insured for the journey and shipped with USPS.  I make a box to fit each painting and pad it to keep it safe.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Laura Walker: Art With a Soul","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46206772609203,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0531\/5077\/7523\/files\/3B29CF8E-EDA0-4B00-A141-E42BF71DF0B8.jpg?v=1791828216","url":"https:\/\/art-with-a-soul.myshopify.com\/products\/melody-whooping-crane","provider":"Laura Walker: Art With a Soul","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
