Project Description

My mission is to produce a body of work using the imagery of extinct and endangered birds as well as birds that have been removed from the endangered species list. I will donate a portion of the profits from the sale of this artwork to an organization dedicated to maintaining the livelihood of endangered bird species.

The project serves two main purposes: first, it educates the public about the importance of avian conservation, while fulfilling my love of painting birds. Second, it is my hope that the project will make the art community more accessible to the public.

My main resources for depicting my subjects accurately are books and photographs, but I believe witnessing the character of the birds first hand is extremely important as well. In order to capture a bird’s unique traits, I plan to visit organizations that house some of these truly amazing creatures.

Through this project I hope to become a better artist, learn more about avian behavior, and become part of a community that supports the survival of an animal about which I am passionate.
