Colorful Tropical Omen Birds Santa Fe Outsider Art Thank You Card

“Omen Birds” is a vividly colored, highly detailed outsider artwork created by American artist Peter Gumaer Ogden in Santa Fe, New Mexico between 2008 and 2010. Painted in acrylic and ink on canvas board, this postmodern composition features exotic tropical birds rendered in a rich, abstract style. The title draws inspiration from New Guinea traditions in which brilliantly colored birds are read as signs and omens in the rainforest. Its intricate detail and layered color work developed over more than two years, resulting in a striking and immersive image now presented here as a flat card.
