***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
Who’s ready to win some art? If I were a motivational speaker this is where I would say “I can’t heeeaaaar yoooou!” and wait for you to respond even louder to my question. But I’m not going to do that. And regardless of how much volume you put behind your response (in all honestly, I’m kinda hoping you just answered it quietly in your head) we’re very excited to bring you this week’s giveaway from Modern Bird Studios.
As you can tell from the image above, Gregg Deal – the artist behind Modern Bird – takes any photo you provide him and turns it into a hand-painted piece of modern art on a thick oak canvas. In many ways it’s our favorite type of wall decor: personal and attractive.
The subtle abstraction of your image, paired with two punchy colors and a solid wooden base make for an interesting and meaningful conversation piece for you walls, mantle, bookshelf or table.
Plus it’s a great way to do something different with that wedding portrait, baby picture, travel photo or pet snapshot that you love. Just pick a couple of colors from Modern Bird’s color chart that coordinate with the tones in your house (or complement them for interest and fun) and suddenly you’ll have a piece that looks right at home in your home. And we love the hint of wood grain that comes through for that truly authentic vibe.
So here at the deets on how to enter this week (plus stay tuned for a discount on Thursday):
- PRIZE: One 12″ x 24″ customized art piece from Modern Bird Studios
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “BIRD ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … I know this sounds weird, but if you could be any bird what kind would you choose? Perhaps a flamingo or a toucan so you can hang out somewhere tropical? A hummingbird because you like being small but stealth? Or perhaps a character like Big Bird is more your style because you’d hate to lose the ability to talk and interact with humans?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, August 25th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The 48 Continental United States
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck…

A cardinal… I live in Ohio and whenever you see a red cardinal it is so unique and cool… not just any hum-drum brown bird… but a regular guy just out in the backyard!

Bird me!I think I would be a goose, everyone calls me that anyways because of my maiden name (Geason). They are kind of annoying birds I know, but I love that they mate for life and fly south together every winter. :)
Alice says
Bird me!
People might think they’re nothing special, but I think I’d be a sparrow. I always think they look so sweet and I love the thought that “His eye is on the sparrow”…
Tracie says
Bird me:) I would have to be a dark-eyed junko! They are small and striking – they look like they have dark eyeliner on, too. My daughter and I love to see what’s at the feeder and look them up in our bird book. Birds and decorating are our passions:) Love your blog!

Bird Me! I would be a cardinal!
Tracey @ TropicalHappiness.com says
BIRD ME!
I think I’d be a seagull. sure, they aren’t the most graceful or beautiful of birds. But they live in some of the most beautiful real estate in the world (the BEACH!), hang out by the ocean all day long, and they get to eat lots of great food (think of random french fries or sandwiches left behind by beach-goers).
SamiJ says
BIRD ME
A penguin. Because they look like they are having a great time when they ‘fly’ out of the water. Plus, they are always dressed up.
Jessie Capstick says

A seagull…annoying yes, but to be able to spend all day at the beach…priceless!
Sarah Traugott says
Bird Me!
A fat song bird.

A parrot so that I could fly, talk and live somewhere tropical :)

BIRD ME. Gotta be a Robin…they are just so cute with their bright orange breasts! Yep, going with a Robin.
Blaine says
Bird Me
Have you ever seen a cactus wren? It’s fine to be something everyone knows, but what if you were almost unknown. They know you exist, but no one can quite pin you down. You’re mysterious. But mysteriously lovely and enchanting and tempting, the list could go on. (And wouldn’t it be a trip to fly – cut down on commuting and pollution!)
Amy LK says
BIRD ME PLEASE! peacock because of all their beautiful/unique colors
Mandy says
BIRD ME! This art is so eye catching. Great Pop Art – turning a memory into a masterpiece. I would be a parrot – at least I could still talk!
