Fall Flickers! (Originally from 2021)

I swear I'm a real birder... I just wrote the caption early while sketching a few different versions! Please don't take away my birding card!! 😭

Some extra detail photos from Curlworks :D bsky.app/profile/curl...

Originally inspired by this wonderful Saul Steinberg work! saulsteinbergfoundation.org/artwork/coun...

Inspired by the fact that female Baltimore Orioles become deeper orange with every molt!

I've wanted to get into some form of stained glass crafting for a bit and this felt like the project to get my toes wet! The Blackbird is simply two pieces of laser cut balsa wood glued together and the "glass" is acrylic I went over with Gallery Glass paint.
