Original artwork description:

The Bird Man" mixed media on cradled wood, 12" x 24" x 1.75". Ready to hang

The studio kids are running amok once more. This time the birds are flying flocking flapping all around and leaving little poops all over the art supplies. Thank goodness the bird man appeared to engage their interest while I cleaned up behind them!

This piece began as a life drawing. The scheduled model was quite late one evening, so the facilitator, a sweet older guy, got up onto the platform and became our stand-in model for part of the session. In this pose, he was actually holding a long bamboo pole (a prop often used by the models). But something about his stoop, bent knees and hanging head demanded a very different setting.

​This piece is sold unframed but ready to hang. It will be shipped flat, carefully packaged in mostly repurposed shipping materials. Customs fees and duties are the responsibility of the recipient.
