Soaring Artist Proof by P. Buckley Moss

Content & Subject

Soaring Artist Proof is a rare signed and numbered limited edition giclée, as well as an Artist Proof  by P. Buckley Moss, part of the Fall Collection and Bird Collection. The composition features two graceful birds gliding across a glowing autumn sky, their white wings catching the soft light as they pass over bare trees and warm seasonal tones. Moss captures the majesty of flight and the poetry of freedom in this serene yet powerful piece.

Artist Proofs are among the rarest editions, originally set aside for the artist’s own review before the full edition is released. Highly prized by collectors, they represent both exclusivity and authenticity.

Style & Technique

As a giclée print, Soaring Artist Proof preserves the fine texture and luminous colors of Moss’s original painting.

🪶 Fun Fact About Birds in Flight:
Migrating birds like cranes and geese can travel up to 600 miles in a single day by riding air currents and conserving energy in formation. Their incredible endurance makes them some of nature’s most skilled long-distance travelers—a perfect match for the uplifting theme of Soaring.

As an Artist Proof, this edition carries rare collector’s value while embodying Moss’s gift for blending nature’s elegance with human emotion.
