Australian artist Deanna Maree creates 100 species of birds on slices of wood in hundred days. In April 2020 she challenged herself to paint a bird each day for 100 days. She just uses gouache and sliced wood logs to create her mixed-media portraits of colorful birds from different species.

In her words “I have always been drawn to birds and all that they represent, and I love painting birds because there is so much variety and variation in the bird world. I had fun bringing each bird to life on the timber, I enjoyed the tree/bird connection…and I found gouache to be very flexible and forgiving throughout the project.”
