Spring Arrivals 2022 – David Jacobson
Each bird is interesting, in and of itself, and together forms a more intricate sculpture. The birds are placed in a formation influenced by observed birds in flight. Angling up, lifting off, soaring. Actual colorings influence the birds’ patterns and colors, but the birds are merely representative of real birds.

Angling up, lifting off, soaring. Actual colorings influence the birds’ patterns and colors, but the birds are representational of actual birds.
