For this series of oil paintings of endangered and critically endangered birds I have incorporated elements from their habitats as well as sonograms of their calls, with the exception of the Spoonbill Sandpiper, which has the poem "The Sandpiper" by Elizabeth Bishop printed in the background. The endangered toads and frogs are painted on oval canvases.

Oil Paintings

For this series on extinct and critically endangered birds I draw on small wooden rectangles that are then tiled to form a mosaic – a fragmented image representing a lost species. I think of this series as the past and present as these birds have either already disappeared or are in the process of disappearing.
