Paintings & Digital Illustrations by Michael Bird (Under Construction)

Summer
This is a digital illustration I created using Illustrator and a wacom drawing pad. It is part of a seasonal series I did. Inspired by Erykah Badu’s song Orange Moon. Reflecting the Light received.


Basking in Loves Light "FUX Yeah"
36×24 Canvas
Spray Painted and hand painted acrylic
2025

This is a canvass I have used on 3 separate occasions for different paintings. This has given the canvass a custom texture that I utilized for this last painting.

The word LOVE is subtly displayed and highlighted by the Light. The main subject is in full submission to the same light and therefore Love. The pink “goo” to the left side of the character is the uncomfortable, twisted, messy, and necessary feelings the portrayed experience can cause.

Fall "Feel Free"
'“Fall” from the season series. This was the first in the series. Started as an experiment using manual created techniques in Illustrator.




I carved high density foam for the pillar and the ledge it rests on. The rest is airbrushed.

South West Sweetness
This is one of my quick paintings I do in a couple hours. Done on a 12×12 inch canvass with water soluble oil paints. I did it to capture the feeling I experienced on one of our adventures.
