Swept As A Sea Bird Out To Sea by Lucinda Leveille is another painting in the series exploring the solitary, hopefully capturing a feeling of quiet stillness. The name of this piece comes from a quote by Sara Teasdale -

"There is the windy flood of morning
Longing lifted its weight from me,
Lost as a sob in the midst of cheering,
Swept as a sea-bird out to sea".

I find the imagery of sea birds over water calming, as they ride the currents - it must be quite peaceful but a solitary experience. The theme running through my work at the moment, is an exploration of the solitary. Whether it be a tree or a boat or a single image in the landscape. The emotions that these images evoke can be mirrored in many of our lives. We all live solitary existences, whether we are surrounded by friends or family.

If you love this piece but it doesn’t quite suit your space, I would be delighted to work with you to produce an artwork that will work for you and your home, I enjoy commissions and it’s always great to know that this is something uniquely yours. You can now email me directly, straight to my inbox and we can discuss what you would like.

The paintings are signed on the front with my name ‘Lucinda’ and come with a Certificate of Authenticity. I only use Artist quality materials in the creation of my artwork .

The piece will arrive cocooned in bubble wrap and packed within a sturdy cardboard container, sometimes recycled ( I do like to recycle when I can!), any glass will be taped to help prevent breakage, I am still losing the war with the tape machine so the package may not be the prettiest on the outside but the contents will arrive safe and sound.
