bird series

When Grant and I first arrived to British Columbia two years ago, I started my bird collage series using the cardboard boxes from our move. Since then, I have created 17 portraits and have big plans to create a life size series of larger birds. The Northern Flicker is the first of the bird collage series featuring birds native to the west coast of British Columbia. Each bird was created using recycled cardboard, pressed leaves from my yard, pencil crayons and acrylic paint.
