"The Phoenix is a mythical bird reborn from the fire and ashes of its old incarnation. It is a story of hope and experience. The vibrant colors, while demonstrate fire, evoke energy and momentum into a new promising existence.
There are no soft, sweet colors, only a series of saturated youthfully intense pigments. This is a representation of tense effort propelling the energy upward. The ashes are made with small, sharp feathers that gradually turn into longer fuller brighter plumage, eventually bursting into a crown of celebratory flames. The lips are simmering coals."
