Welcome to the New Bird Nerd Art

hello again friends! If you’re finding this site for the first time, or if you’ve been following my work on social media wondering when oh when Mere is going to get her act together on something off of the Metaverse… I’m so glad you’re here because this is it.

What You’ll Find

This site is a place to explore my ink and watercolor art, learn about the birds that inspire me, and connect with a community of nature lovers. Here’s what’s here:

  • Gallery: Browse my collection of bird paintings, from tiny chickadees to majestic herons.
  • Bird a Day 2023: The complete collection of my daily bird painting challenge.
  • Journal: Stories behind the art, bird observations, and community events.
  • Commissions: Information on ordering a custom bird painting.
  • ALSO!: Believe it or not, I’m not only the bird nerd but you’ll find paths to www.meredithblunt.art too, a home for my other works and visions.

A Bit About Me

I’m Meredith - Mere to my friends and family. I live in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario. I paint birds in ink and watercolour. I believe that noticing the birds around us is a way of acknowledging the space we all share in the world. Art isn’t something that came to me recently. It’s been with me my whole life, It just took the first 45 years for me to build up to confidence that what I make is worthy.

I’m also a co-founder of Bird Friendly City Kitchener, because the birds need us to pay attention in more than just artistic ways. I’m a passionate community advocate and volunteer.

I’m married to someone who knew so little about birds when we got together more than 20 years ago but now asks me questions concerning the lift power of a red-tailed hawk, we live in a midmod bungalow with our two teens, one dog and one cat…and every backyard bird I could hope for.

Stay Connected

I share my work on Instagram. I also post on BlueSky, Facebook, and Reddit.

If you’d like to chat about a purchase or commission or just birds and art in general, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Thanks for visiting, and happy birding! 🐦
