JAN FITCH - Art in Wood
Artist directory :: JAN FITCH - Art in WoodDriftwood Art
Mother Nature created beautiful pieces of driftwood - artwork in itself. By carving the bird and using the driftwood as a "frame", a unique collectable transpires which can be hung on the wall or if preferred, mounted to place on a table. Carving individual feathers, texturing and painting adds realism and life.

 | | Using a knife, my birds are carved from basswood or tupelo wood. After the piece is carved to shape, feather groups are carved in and within those groups, individual feathers are formed. The piece is then textured with a wood burner and/or texturing stones to simulate feather detail and finally, painted with acrylic paints to create the soft look of the bird in the wild. |
