Called by the Sky and Anchored by the Nest

Called by the Sky, Anchored by the Nest is a 10x10 shadow box that captures a quiet moment between flight and home. Set against a layered blue and gray decoupage background, a single perched bird gazes outward, evoking a sense of longing and stillness. Below, a row of textured vintage bingo numbers—washed in soft blue—grounds the composition with a nostalgic rhythm.

In the foreground, a hand-built nest cradles three speckled blue eggs, each dusted with gentle brown freckles, symbolizing the delicate beauty of beginnings. The word Mission rests in the upper left corner, a subtle nudge toward purpose, while a small resin circle encloses an image of a key in the opposite corner, hinting at the unseen doors we all carry within us.

Both wall-ready and tabletop-friendly, this piece is an invitation to pause—caught between the call of the open sky and the comfort of belonging.
