It seems that every so often I come up with an image with a bird's nest and many times there are three eggs. It may have something to do with the fact that I had two additional siblings. But I do know that I equate the nest with eggs as a symbol for potential, for creativity, for something new. You know the old cliche of the guy with the light bulb turning on over his head when he comes up with the ideal solution? Well, I guess I have an egg hatch, maybe more. :) This is a 6 by 4.5 inches gel pen drawing on medium bond paper and another of those nesting examples of Original Jones Art that keep hatching in northwest Austin, Texas. Heck, maybe the idea was unconscious and brought on by the fact that I watched a female grackle filling her little beak with straw for her nest this afternoon. Stranger things have happened.
