“Pair of Towhees no. 7,” flax pulp painting on cotton, abaca and linen, 17 x 9 inches (each). Whenever I recreate a design I like to experiment with different fibers and colors. For this version I blended leftover black pulp with indigo-dyed pulp, resulting in this blue-gray background. Bits of paper scraps are swirled into the pulp for additional texture. The rufous-sided towhee displays two distinct natures. Generally secretive and hidden in the grass, during mating season the male will take to high branches to sing. The female panel of this diptych is titled “Biding Time” and the male panel is “Revelation.” #donwidmerpaperarts #pulppainting #handmadepaper #birdart #towhee #rufoussidedtowhee #easterntowhee #birdlore #birdsymbolism https://www.instagram.com/p/CQb7W68B6ro/?utm_medium=tumblr

This was a Rufous-sided Towhee when I photographed it several years ago. Today he goes by just Eastern Towhee. #thenatureofkansas #naturephotography #naturalhistory #wildlifephotography #birding #easterntowhee #rufoussidedtowhee #pipiloerythrophthalmus #nikon #Kansas #wolfcreeknuclearplant #fujichrome (at Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation)

Female Rufous Sided Towhees (bottom center and to the left) are mean, particularly to sparrows. (There's a male to the right) #nofilter #birdsofinstagram #rufoussidedtowhees #winterbirds #home #fiveoaks #dantesspirit (at Dante's Spirit) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6BzvF2p05u/?igshid=1o7brduyuyigq
