The composition of Protection coils in on itself with careful tension: a heron wrapped in its own wings like a shield. Every curve feels intentional, every form nested within another....The composition of Protection coils in on itself with careful tension: a heron wrapped in its own wings like a shield. Every curve feels intentional, every form nested within another. The eye travels in spirals, pulled inward and held. Set against a rich teal ground, the black, white, and crimson forms pop with precision and weight. The limited palette heightens the emotional clarity of the image. This is not just a bird but a watchful guardian.
