Through my art I strive to capture and personify birds, enriching the viewer's perception of this particular form of wildlife which they may have rarely had an opportunity to intimately experience. The birds are presented in such a way that they are aware of the viewer's presence and react to that confrontation. Their reaction reveals unique traits to the viewer, adding another level of understanding. Ultimately one's sensitivity and awareness of these natural wonders could lead to a more profound perception of the world we all share.
