NATIVE SPECIES, HOMAGE TO
ECOLOGICAL REALNESS

On my grandfather's shed, I painted a collage of important icons: the Pennsylvania Railroad, the beautiful rolling countryside, and a ruby-throated hummingbird.
This unconventional mural was a self-motivated school project-come-community service project. Hidden around the back wall of the museum are 13 different birds native to the Richmond area. A list shows the birds to find, and a quick fact about each one.
This project is dedicated to Lois Herr, stalwart bird-watcher, loving grandmother, and amazing lady.
Definitely definitely go eat at Sugar & Twine, best cookies, best sandwiches, best people <3 I worked with the owner to select a range of birds native to the area, all gathering nesting material appropriate to their species, flying together to build a nest at the center “&” of the logo.
