On one hand, this painting alludes to the biblical story of the creation of the birds, which occurs on the fifth day. On the other hand, the idea of “the creation of the birds” can be seen allegorically in a number of ways. It could be seen as an allegory for the act of creating through painting or other media, with the artist shaping their creation in their hands. It can also be seen as an allegory for how humans “create” their environment by changing it. Animals, as such, do their best to adapt to these changes. Birds, for example, find ways to re-create themselves by adapting to urban environments as their natural habitats disappear. It can also be seen as creation through an act of kindness through feeding and caring for birds, animals and the natural environment. Unframed, cradled panel sides are finished with clear varnish. Painting is wired and ready to hang. Signed, titled and dated on back.

Despite an aversion to cold, Bryan Holland resides year round in Minnesota, where he creates layered oil paintings that are often a mix of collage and other experimentation. His work incorporates realistic painting techniques fused with design elements such as text, patterns, and decorative motifs, which serve to create tension both visually and thematically. Holland holds a Master of Fine Arts in painting from the University of South Dakota, and Bachelor of Arts in art from USF/Augustana College, as well as a degree in graphic design from Alexandria Technical and Community College. His varied experience has helped shape his unique aesthetic. In addition to being an artist, Bryan has also worked as a graphic artist, a college professor, and gallery owner. Most recently, Bryan founded and organized an annual studio crawl event in his home town, and is on the board of a local artist alliance. His paintings have been featured in numerous exhibitions, including solo shows and national juried presentations. Publications include Spectrum Fantastic Art, Hi-Fructose (online), Juxtapoz (online), and New American Paintings. His work is held in both national and international private collections. See more at
