Embracing Nature with Reclaimed Materials: The Art of Wooden Birds

I absolutely love nature as well as birds. I now enjoy showing the beauty of nature through the art of creating wooden birds from reclaimed materials and driftwood. This journey is a testament to my lifelong passion for birdwatching and conservation, intertwined with a dedication to sustainability and artistic expression.

My love for birds extends beyond art; I have spent years rescuing and caring for them. My experience working at a nearby bird rescue and sanctuary has deepened my understanding of avian life and fueled my commitment to their well-being. This background infuses my creations with a profound sense of respect and admiration for the birds that inspire them.

Every wooden bird I create is more than just a decorative piece; it is a symbol of harmony between art and nature, a celebration of sustainable practices, and a tribute to the birds that have captured my heart throughout my life.
