Did You Know?
The hummingbird is the smallest bird in the world, yet one of nature’s greatest wonders. Found only in the Americas, these radiant creatures can hover in midair, fly backward, and beat their wings up to 80 times per second. Their long beaks and tongues are specially designed to sip nectar from flowers, while they also eat small insects for protein. Despite their size, hummingbirds are fiercely territorial, incredibly agile, and capable of traveling thousands of miles during migration.
With every piece I create, my goal is not only to inspire and entertain but also to capture the essence of a subject—embedding iconic themes, emotions, and experiences directly into my artwork.
For this Hummingbird piece, I carefully selected words like Agile, Hover, Radiant, and Spirit, along with phrases such as “Wings Beat Very Fast,” “Native to America,” and “Eat Small Insects.” In total, you’ll find dozens of words and phrases woven throughout the design, each one celebrating the beauty, resilience, and wonder of these miraculous little birds.
Every piece of my art is digitally hand-drawn, one letter at a time, with no word or phrase ever repeated. Depending on the complexity, each artwork takes between 6 and 60 hours to complete.
I truly hope this piece brings you as much joy and inspiration as I had in creating it!
