This series is focussed upon the male ruffed grouse and his role as it relates to hunting and other forms of cultural significance including craft and symbology. Through this subject, I represent the grouse in a succession of ways in an effort to convey concepts of life, death, food and craft. Through the actions of the grouse as well as through the beauty of his feathers, the final works and the narrative I have created attempt to pay tribute to the grouse as well as iconify him.
