Geometric Bird
Materials: Acrylic paint on cartridge paper
To create an art piece representing Native American Art I painted an image of a bird. In the Native American culture, there are various symbols representing different things.
I tried to recreate this image of Native American art which I found. It is a very intricate drawing of a bird that has meaning to it. The bird is believed to represent the physical form of a spirit helper and guide. It is also believed that because of their ability to fly, birds are seen as messengers and bringers of change. The birds of the feathers are used for spiritual and ritual uses.
Within the bird, there are different geometric shapes that make the image of the bird appear to be slightly abstract. This image of a bird does have meaning for Native Americans and I believe that it is important to understand the art of different cultures. It is important to see the differences and similarities between the art of cultures, so people can find ways to connect with each other.
