Description
ABOUT THE ARTWORK
These 8″ x 10″ works on paper are inspired by Eve Wood’s experience of working with injured and orphaned birds at an animal rehabilitation center. She began to develop relationships with specific birds, earning their trust and forging a deeper appreciation for each unique character and their dynamic and indispensable place in our world ecosystem. These drawings are gouache, graphite and oil stick on hand made rag paper and are based on photographs I’ve taken of these birds at the rescue. As with the creatures themselves, each drawing is unique and handcrafted.
