Birds and trees simply go together. Lynn Ericson's windswept trees accompany Ron Tango's stunning one-of-a-kind birdhouses in our newest show at E. Drumm Designs.

About Lynn Ericson

Lynn Ericson's contemporary acrylic paintings communicate the spirit of a place or subject matter that captures her attention. Lynn's passion is color, and her primary focus is on color relationships and their emotive power. She lets the painting process determine the final balance between representation and abstraction.

She paints with acrylics and sometimes the addition of oil markers, starting with a piece with a wash of thin layers. The progress of the painting involves an ongoing cycle of adding and subtracting, building and simplifying.

Lynn is influenced by her design education, which stressed strong composition, cropping, vibrant color and the importance of negative space.

 

 

About Ron Tango

Ron Tango is a retired Union Carpenter by trade. He started building birdhouses as a way to repurpose wood from his local wood shop. His meticulous birdhouses are crafted from mahogany, purple heartwood, and marble wood from the rainforests of Africa and South America. He also includes found refurbished American hardwoods. 

While some of his birdhouses are decorative only, others are functional, and can be used outdoors to welcome birds in grand style.
