In Slavic mythology, creatures with a "maiden face, and a bird's body" are not uncommon. Suffice it to recall the prophetic bird Gamayun or the messenger of the underworld Sirin. But the London artist Amy Judd has created charming modern images of half-birds, half-women … Graceful wings add lightness and airiness to surreal portraits.
Soft pastel colors, a simple black background - all the viewer's attention is concentrated exclusively on the female image. Traditionally, it is believed that emotions are read in the eyes, but Amy Judd conveyed the inner state of her heroines through - a flap of a wing. In these mysterious images, the human body is so organically "merged" with the bird's plumage that absolutely harmonious images are born.
The artist practically does not comment on this series of paintings, giving the viewer the opportunity to independently determine what shades of meanings are born in these surreal combinations. The only thing Amy Judd emphasizes is that the wings are an allegory of feminine courage, strength and courage, and by no means fragility.

It is believed that a good grade starts at seven points, and anything lower is already a "C". So n
