A chickadee takes a short break nestled in a tree burl.

Artist Note: Chickadees are EXTREMELY active birds and don't ever seem to rest much, but I know they must, so I portrayed one.  I wanted to give the viewer a sense of calm, peace, and safety.  This burl is shaped somewhat like an egg, and I imagined that a bird would love to be in there, even if only briefly.

A chickadee searches inside a stump looking for the next meal.

Artist note:  Anyone who knows chickadees will understand how incredibly active and noisy they are while searching for food.  I love their personalities and will probably always be planning the next chickadee sculpture.

Commission Piece: SOLD

A male chickadee tries to impress his female friends.

Artist Note:  This commission was a lot of fun to do.  I wanted to have the neutral colors of chickadees emphasized with a white quakie branch.  Having one chickadee highly animated on one side and two resting and sleeping chickadees on the other side gave it a nice balance, and allows the viewer to see two different sides to these very active birds.  The handmade base (apricot wood) came from a tree that was over a hundred years old and planted by Utah Pioneers.  The rich colors bring out the rusty colors on the sides of the birds.

A sleepy western screech owl peers out of her stump hide out.

Artist Note: The gray screech owl is a master of camouflage and hides well in tree cavities as it sleeps during the day after a night of hunting.  I love how the feathering with all of the gray cryptic colors move in various directions as the bird fluffs out to sleep.  This was a fun one to paint.

A white crowned sparrow hops along a tree root looking for a snack.

Artist Note: The white crowned sparrow is one of my favorite sparrows.  The stark black and white crown mixed with the rich reddish brown colors across the back of the bird make a beautiful transition.
