Canada Jay - Bird Art Painting on Canvas

This 9” x 12” oil painting with mixed media on gallery-wrapped canvas features a Canada Jay or Grey Jay perched against an abstract background of a range of blues and golden yellows. Often called the “whiskey jack,” this intelligent and bold bird is a beloved species of the Pacific Northwest’s alpine forests.

With expressive brushstrokes and layered textures, the piece captures the spirit of the Canada Jay - inquisitive and clever. The abstract background evokes the mystery and beauty of its wild habitat, inviting viewers to see the world through the bird’s eyes: alert, open, and full of wonder.

This painting is a celebration of staying curious, of noticing life’s small moments, and of honoring the remarkable creatures that call our forests home. Perfect for anyone who feels a deep connection to birds or finds comfort in wild spaces.
