The bird series is based on "cliches" (visual or spoken) or well known sayings. I think sometimes
I start creating without a clear idea of what the message is. After I take a step back and look at the finished work the meaning
often shines through and I find that a subliminal message bubbled up to the surface.
 Birds on a Wire, $200 I've often noticed
the way birds cluster on a wire in almost human fashion as a clique with gaps between them. Some seem rather chummy
with each other, while others either choose not to associate with the group or are left out. That says a lot about our broken
human nature. It also says a lot about individuality.
God made us all unique. I randomly chose text that seemed
to have a deeper meaning to go on the work. Again, it says a lot about human nature, where our hearts and minds are. As
with most of my work, I love to work in recycled components because I find a spiritual message in it. God loves and values
us despite our brokenness and he can turn trash into something beautiful and valuable.
Birds
cluster together on a wire. Colorful background with found objects and text make this social gathering even more interesting.
