Brancusi did a few sculptures – quite a few, in fact! – with birds and some with Pasari maiestre (in Romanian that means an enchanted, bewitched – or bewitching? – bird; a special, fantastic bird, anyhow…)
Here is a study for one I’ve recently finished… I am not totally happy about it but there are some things I like…
It’s an acrylic on board painting. It goes well with the fantascapes. In fact, it goes well with my bizarro-baroque stuff where you can find – I really don”t know why? – a lot of claws and beaks and, especially, a lot of eyes… That’s the way things are… to cite Kurt Vonnegut jr…
