A small bird's nest in a red leather covering has been partially recessed into a round stretched canvas. Seeds, beads and stones radiate around it in a circular pattern.  The interior of the nest is extremely soft and is meant to be gently touched.

St. Catharine's Well

Artist
Francie McGlynn
Description
St. Catharine's Well is like holy water for the pagan in your soul. A tiny bird's nest with an interior so soft to touch it grounds and connects you to Mother Earth. The title of this piece comes from an apocryphal story about the origins of the name of St. Catharines, my home and where the nest was found. It is mounted on a round painted stretched canvas, 8 Inches in diameter and decorated with stones and beads.
