The Gift
$75.00 – $850.00
“The Gift” is a painting with a special backstory that makes it even more meaningful. Created in the early 1980s as a handmade Christmas present for Ron Suchiu’s wife, Colleen, this piece represents both personal and artistic growth. Originally, the scene was complete, but one vibrant detail—the red cardinal—was missing. Over fifteen years after its creation, Ron decided to add the cardinal, symbolizing a guardian angel, to make the piece even more special. Wrapped again as a “re-gift” for Christmas, Colleen was delighted with this unexpected addition, turning “The Gift” into a cherished and unique work of art.
This heartwarming piece invites you to experience the magic of the holiday season through its serene winter scene. The soft snow-covered landscape is punctuated by the lone cardinal perched on a snow fence, creating a striking contrast that symbolizes hope, renewal, and the quiet beauty of nature.
The painting also holds a fun challenge for viewers: Can you recognize the true location of this scene? With a hint from Ron himself, “The Gift” becomes not just a painting but a puzzle, inviting you to look deeper and uncover its real-world inspiration.
Perfect for collectors and those who appreciate stories of love, surprises, and personal history.
