modern bird studios {amazing giveaway!}

Have you heard of Modern Bird Studios?

They are new to me.

And so unique.

Their art is a.ma.zing!!!



Modern Bird Studios creates personalized, modern art from your photographs.



Each work is a one-of-a-kind, original studio piece created with a combination of digital, hand, and painting processes on an Oak composite.



They take your photograph, and break it down into a two-color image, which results in abstract shapes that make up the form. Then they choose two contrasting colors to create the painting.



The result is a marriage between technology and traditional painting to create a totally hip urban-style art piece that enriches your home...



I emailed them this picture of Eden (one of my faves!)...



and after emailing me several proofs (amazing customer service!) they mailed me this:

modern bird

I. LOVE. IT!!!

And what's even better- RYAN LOVES IT! We are buying more very soon :)

They are sweet works of art with a sentimental personal touch. I want to buy more and hang them all over my house :) Their art is truly original and unique, our friends have oohed and aahed!

And guess what?

Megan and Gregg are giving away a 12" x 12" custom piece (valued at $215)!

They are talented and generous!

Please go check out their website and then come back and tell us how much you love it! Don't forget to bookmark their website for future gifts.

Follow them on facebook (scroll down their facebook page for MORE amazing pieces they have made!) and twitter here for extra entries! (please be sure to leave separate entires for each).

Also blog it and tweet it @thevintagepearl and @modern_bird or RT for extra entries!

Lots of chances to win, gOoD lUcK!

I visited Modern Bird's website and I really like the brown/black and brown/green combos the most. I'd most likely choose a photo of my two daughters to make into an art piece, since they are my world. I am so proud of them! These would also be a great item to have as a custom auctioned item for our nonprofit, @tmlhduke. They would be a hit with local families of children born with heart defects!

Kristyn Martin said...

I love Modern Bird!! I have entered every giveaway that is out there! Thanks for the chance!

I went to Modern Bird's website and really like the brown/black or brown/green combos and I would most likely choose to have one of my photos of my two daughters remade into a piece of art. They are my life and my inspiration! These would be great as a donated custom item for our non-profit group @tmlhduke to auction for a local family with a child born with heart defects, like ours. Would go for lots of money and help raise awareness for CHDs!
