"Once a Red-Bellied Woodpecker" is a high quality Giclée reprint from an Original Watercolor by me, artist Katherine Moore. This is the image that triggered that resonating artistic hummmmm inside me, the image that my mind kept wandering back to, the first in my series, "Once a Bird."
There's a question
in this visual poem
left on the sidewalk
bright red crown feathers still intact
Who was it?
Was it you, Great Horned Owl?
a whisper of wind before descending
Or you? neighborhood Cooper's Hawk
grabbing your prey from the side of the tree?
We'll never know.
All that remains,
are the remains ---
and the mystery
This Giclée reproduction is made on high quality acid free 100% cotton paper with archival ink. Prints are individually signed by the artist.

Lost Feather Studio is a small independent art studio located in Madison, WI. As both an artist and a naturalist my inspiration grows from my love and respect for our natural world. Every Sunday my family hikes together to connect with one another, but also to replenish our spirit as we connect to the natural world and the wonders that surround us. Every weekend brings new delight as we find heart-shaped lichens, hear an owl call, or find tiny baby toads hiking the trail with us. Just as sunlight feeds an Oak Tree, the Oak Tree feeds my soul. I hope my art shares these moments of inspiration and feeds yours too - Katherine
