Drawing 10,000 Birds: My Life Dream

My dream is to meet and paint 10,000 species of birds over my lifetime. This page documents my progress towards that goal, and serves as a gallery of all of my bird art since I started this quest.

Adding to this page is a work in progress! I have a lot of art to go through and upload. Check back often to see more and more birds!

All of these images are available as prints in various sizes. Not everything is available in my online store for space reasons, but if you see an image you like that is not available in the store just email me and I will make it available for you!
