'Watching Over' Robin Original Painting

Watching Over is more than a painting—it’s a heartfelt tribute to the quiet presence of robins and their symbolic connection to love, remembrance, and protection. Part of the Garden Chorus collection, this original artwork captures the delicate beauty of a robin perched on the edge of a birdbath, its watchful gaze evoking a sense of stillness and nostalgia.
Painted using soft pastels on archival Pastelmat paper, the piece measures 9.5 x 12 inches. The choice of soft pastels allows for an intricate layering of vibrant tones, from the robin’s russet chest to the shimmering reflections of water. The gentle, textured strokes invite you to feel as though you’re standing right in the garden, soaking in its tranquillity.
Robins have long been seen as messengers from loved ones, a comforting reminder that those who’ve passed are still near. Watching Over brings this symbolism to life, making it not just a piece of art, but a meaningful keepsake for those who cherish nature’s quiet messages.
