Bird Series in my Art Journal: Part 1

Bird Series in my Art Journal: Part 1

I got a free subscription to a bird magazine for filling out a survey. I was charmed by all the photos of birds and cut out a bunch of them.

Birds and shapes cut out of magazine

I particularly liked the chubby chickadee and cut his shape out of other photos from the magazine. I had more cut-outs than I could use on one page, so I decided to create a bird series spread in my art journal.

Bird photo glued into journal

Spread 1 has the lone photo of the chubby chickadee.

2 bird shapes glued into journal

Spread 2 has two of the bird shape cut-outs.

4 bird shapes glued into journal

And Spread 3 has four.

2 more bird photos glued into journal

Spread 4 has a heron-shaped cut-out and a photo of a Cedar Waxwing.

I’ll be posting Part 2 and Part 3 of this series in the next couple of weeks.
