Birds in Art

Sept 12 – Nov 29, 2020
700 N 12th St, Wausau, WI 54403, USA

“It takes years,” says the New Mexico artist Timothy David Mayhew, “decades even, to be able to capture the subtleties of the quality of light and the unique behaviors of the charismatic megafauna I encounter.” He’s talking birds! Mayhew is the 2020 Master Artist at the 45th annual “Birds in Art” exhibition at the Woodson Art Museum. The show includes the work of 114 artists from around the world, avian life captured in many environments and every medium (even a reduction linocut). —L.J.
