Nuthatch Collage by Margo Connolly-Masson

 This framed nuthatch collage is an original piece by Margo Connolly-Masson. 

Margo creates original collages by painting pages from field guides and her old grad school text books.  She then cut and glued the paper onto her bird designs and added details with paint, ink, tape and even some scraps of her son's art work. 

This nuthatch and other bird collages are featured in Margo's 2021 calendar, also available at The Drawing Room. 

Margo works out of her Hatch Street Studios space in New Bedford, MA. She is inspired by the shorelines and coastal communities in which she has lived and worked. Her paintings depict the objects and scenes that she has discovered while roaming the beaches, salt marshes, working waterfronts, and seaside neighborhoods of Massachusetts, Alaska, and South Carolina. She loves the vibrancy of color that she can achieve with oil paint, and tries to focus on the beauty of seemingly simple subjects.
