A study of flight and mischief. In the folklore of the Magpie Mail Club, the magpie is more than just a bird; he is the Archivist’s clever companion, a collector of secrets, and a sharp-eyed witness to history.
This piece captures a pair of these incredibly intelligent figures in mid-flight, their iridescent feathers rendered in deep watercolor ink. Inspired by the traditional counting rhyme, this piece celebrates the sudden spark of joy and the spirited intelligence that defines our club.
