For the final conclusion to this Series I wanted to portray a warm and comforting final image, honoring the legacy of Orpheus. I think the variety in warm versus cool colors, and the twilight style palette, is the most successful aspect of this image. I thought this idea of the nightingales singing above his grave was really poignant, so I placed them on a branch extending near his mouth to convey this idea that they are singing from his own voice.
