Description

I absolutely love painting birds. Modern day remnants to the dinosaurs, they are truly engineering marvels. With strength, speed and agility they are perhaps the most spectacular of all tetrapods to have ever roamed the earth.

I am fascinated by they way they can maneuver in the skies, either chasing down prey or retreating from becoming prey. Whether it be in the jungles of Asia, Savannas of Africa, or the mountains of North America, one of my favorite things to hear in the morning is songs of birds at dawn. They lift my mind, replenish my spirit and renew my passion for living!
