Coal Tit /Birds In Drawers by Yukawa Atsuko

Coal Tit /Birds In Drawers by Yukawa Atsuko

Birds in Drawers series features various species of birds observed and painted by artist Yukawa Atsuko.

The series offers a unique way to bring a love of birds and the natural world into your home, with a touch of Nihonga (Japanese style painting). 

The medium is acrylic paint on wooden board. Many of the works use vintage drawer boxes, but other repurposed items are also used, such as cupboard doors, trays, toolboxes, or just a piece of board which used to be a part of a furniture item. 

Using vintage drawers means so much to the artist. The grain lines of solid wood are incorporated into the works, so that they can be imagined as ripples in water, or the effects of rain and wind. In the same way, Yukawa often takes advantage of the weathered and lightly damaged condition on the wooden surface, to summon up scenes of the birds in nature. 

Depicted in life size in their natural habitats, these paintings lead viewers into the inner lives of each bird, offering a different kind of birdwatching experience. 

Each artwork is one-of-a-kind, making it a special addition to any art collection.

Please note that due to the vintage materials used, each artwork can have small areas of dirt, damage, and chips on the wooden surfaces, which the artist incorporates into her work.

  • Artist

    Yukawa Atsuko is an artist who mostly paints birds, and she is also an accordionist who performs with a band.


    As a dedicated bird lover and watcher, Yukawa only paints the species she has actually observed in their natural habitats. Her artistic style uses realism along the lines of Nihonga (Japanese style painting), yet with a twist of convincing anthropomorphism. This comes from her imagined narratives based on her keen observation and deep understanding of each species' habitual behavior, natural environment and life cycle. Read more...
