What is Bird Wall Art?
Birds are a captivating subject for artists; the intricacies on their feathers, their unique movements and the huge spectrum of colour they present all provide a wealth of inspiration. Birds also carry symbolism, which varies from bird to bird, and from culture to culture. Many artists play with this symbolism to convey a deeper meaning and tell a story with their work. There can also be historical and social commentary within bird wall art. Original avian artwork sought to identify species, while contemporary works comment on conservation and global warming.
What Are the Key Features of Bird Wall Art?
Taking on the bright and brilliant beauty of birds can take many forms, but there are a few key features that artists use regularly in their work:
Detailing & Texture: Intricate detailing is often used to portray the unique characteristics of the bird being featured in the art. This detailing is often used to create texture in the art, giving it a tactile quality.
Symbolism: Freedom and peace, love and prosperity...the joy and symbolism of birds is entrenched in cultures across the globes. Capturing this symbolism, artists give their works complex meanings, leaving clues and indicators for the viewer to ponder upon.
Peace: Birds are often chosen as a focal point for works that wish to convey peace and harmony. In the home, they can create a calming effect and feelings of relaxation.
Character: Birds can also be anthropomorphised, the artists gracing them with quirky characteristics to create playful pieces that inspired joy and humour.

In ancient Greece, birds adorned pottery and in the Medieval period they can be seen embellishing manuscripts.
