Bird McCargar
Bird McCargar's work is a mingling of abstract and representational with an obvious interest in color. Layers are built on panels of acrylic and medium to create semi transparencies. Buildings and environmental surroundings in the urban landscape are her current obsession. She has likened her images to archeological reproductions of the interior states of her mind. She also has come to love sharing peoples love for their animal companions, and to add her style to rendering their images for their humans. She holds a BFA, and an MA.

While growing up in New England, I spent countless hours in school and at home drafting and rendering architectural landmarks in pen and watercolor. After High School, there was a long gap of time when I did not pick up a brush or pen while I was pursuing my science career (I hold a doctorate in toxicology). Finally, the urge to create art was too strong and I began, in 1987, to paint impressionistic landscapes. One painting led to another, and before I knew it I was back in school earning credit toward a fine arts degree. The formal training I had in art school solidified my technique of course, but more importantly, it forced me to think about what was really important for me to express in my work. When people ask me what I paint, I usually just tell them I paint abstract landscapes. What I really mean to say is that these paintings are a glimpse into my personal thoughts, heart and soul.

All these images are part of an ongoing series depicting the adventures of the little girl in the red coat. They are meant to explore the wonder and imagination of childhood and capture an independent and adventurous spirit.
