ACEO no. 005, hummingbird: "could plainly hear her humming"





ACEO ("Art Card, Edition and Original") no. 005.

This is an original, one-of-a-kind mixed-media collage.

Regular & metallic acrylic, metallic pigment, gesso, graphite, and cut paper on 140 lb Canson watercolor paper.

Blue-on-blue handmade "Tibetan Cloud" print paper is adhered to the back of the card. The actual back of card 005 differs slightly in composition from the photo of the card-back shown.

3.5 x 2.5 inches with rounded corners (standard ACEO size).

Cut-paper text reads:

could plainly hear her humming
widening her flight,
a twig too slender
the pollen of one blossom
sound of her wings
like a little ship at sea.
