At the beginning of 2024, feeling overwhelmed by global conflicts and the state of the world, I asked myself: «wouldn’t it be amazing if birds ruled instead? No wars, no abuse, just seeds for everyone.» That simple thought sparked the beginning of the “Drawing Birds Until They Rule the World” project.
Every day, I create and share a new bird illustration on my Instagram, usually through timelapse reels. These videos offer a brief moment of peace amid the daily scroll, a splash of color, calm, and joy. Each bird celebrates diversity and aims to brighten someone’s day, even if just for a fleeting minute.
This is a collaborative project where everyone is invited to take part: you can suggest species, share birds that you love, or even commission your favorite “birb” or pet to join the revolution.

Down below you’ll be able to view the full collection, sorted from newest to oldest ♡
You will see that some illustrations are marked with a (?), that’s because Instagram removed the original posts, and I can’t recall the species of the bird depicted. If you think you might recognize it, please feel free to contact me!
