She looks out from the canvas with a gaze that holds galaxies. A red-tailed black cockatoo, regal and wise, born of flame and sky, stares into the soul of the viewer—not with fear, but with knowing. It is in her eyes that the story of the Earth begins to whisper.
This painting was born from stillness—from the quiet moments spent listening to the rustle of leaves, the cry of distant birds, and the echo of a forgotten harmony between humankind and the wild. In those moments, I began to feel a presence—ancient, steady, and patient. The red-tailed black cockatoo arrived to me like a guardian, a reminder of what we are slowly losing. Not just species or habitats—but connection.
Each brushstroke of her feathers carries the dust of stars, the memory of forests, the weight of balance. Her red tail, a flicker of fire, represents the fragile thread that holds ecosystems together. She is more than a bird. She is Earth’s breath, nature’s witness, and our mirror.
In painting her portrait, I wasn’t just capturing a bird. I was channeling a call. A call to return—to remember that we are not separate from nature, but of it. We are stardust woven into consciousness, and so is she.
"We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children."
– Native American Proverb
As you look into her eyes, I invite you to feel your place in the web of life. Not above it. Not apart from it. Within it.
Let her gaze remind you that every creature—every feathered wing, every leaf, every drop of water—is part of the same delicate equation that allows us to breathe, dream, and exist.
"When the last tree is cut, the last fish caught, and the last river poisoned, only then will we realize that one cannot eat money."
– Cree Prophecy
We are not here to dominate nature. We are here to listen to it, to live alongside it, to protect its sacred rhythm. Every time a species vanishes, a thread unravels in the tapestry of life. And eventually, we too begin to fray.
This artwork is a love letter to balance, to biodiversity, to the mysterious beauty of the natural world—and to the soul of a bird whose spirit watches over the forest and now, through this painting, watches over you.
"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better."
– Albert Einstein
 
May her eyes stay with you long after you’ve looked away. May her spirit remind you that we are all connected. And may you never forget: what we do to the Earth, we do to ourselves.
