The white-bird series holds ten works - among them Dove of Light, Swan in White and White Peacock - all built on one formula: a pale bird on a clean ground. That lets them hang in almost any room. Common sizes: 70x100 cm about ₪1,240 and 100x150 cm about ₪1,540 in canvas, at SRC Collection, Beit Shemesh. This page covers what defines the series, which bird suits which room and at what size, why a clean ground works well in an Israeli living room, what changes between tempered glass and canvas on a white subject, and how to build a pair or a set of three from the series.
The ten works in the series - Moon Owl, Snowy Owl, Swan in White, Dancing Crane, Dove of Light, White Peacock, Heron in Silence, White Falcon, Royal Cockatoo and King of Wings - are built on the same principle: one pale subject, a clean ground, and very few distractions. The practical advantage is that they do not clash with the colour of the room. Grey, beige, blue or black sofa - a white bird on a clean ground works against all of them, because it brings a light value rather than a new hue. The second advantage is emotional: a bird is an image of movement and freedom, which suits both a private room and a public space such as a lobby or a clinic. The one drawback worth knowing: on a very white wall, a very pale work needs a frame or a slightly darker ground so it does not merge in.
Choosing between the birds is mostly a choice of mood: owls and falcons convey alert quiet and focus; swans, doves and herons convey calm; peacocks and cranes bring movement and presence. The table sums up six of the works in the series, the mood of each, the room where it sits best and the size we recommend there. The remaining four - Snowy Owl, White Falcon, Royal Cockatoo and King of Wings - carry stronger energy and suit a central wall or a commercial space. The sizes in the table are a starting point; above a sofa, the governing rule is a width of about two thirds of the sofa width.

Two practical reasons. The first is light: many Israeli homes are brightly lit, and a print with a dark, detailed background absorbs that light and loses detail during the day, while a clean ground stays legible. The second is furniture: a typical living room already holds a rug, cushions and a television, and a busy artwork adds another layer of noise. A pale bird on a clean ground works like a breath in the wall. One point to note - a clean ground is not necessarily a white ground. If your wall is white, look for a version whose ground leans pale grey, sand or soft sky blue, so there is a clear boundary between artwork and wall. If the wall is coloured or dark, a white ground will stand out without any issue. More on planning a living room wall → guide.
On a white subject over a clean ground, the two materials give very different results. Tempered glass adds a gloss that sharpens the feather edges and creates a sense of light coming from inside the work - most noticeable on the peacock, the swan and the cockatoo, which carry a lot of fine detail. Canvas keeps things soft: the matte weave brings the white closer to paper or fabric, and the result is quieter and well suited to a bedroom. The fair caveat: on glass, a very pale work facing a large window will compete with reflections in the middle of the day, so check the angle from where you sit. Price gaps: 70x100 cm about ₪1,240 in canvas against about ₪1,620 in glass; 100x150 cm about ₪1,540 against about ₪2,330. All include VAT. Comparison → guide.
Because every work in the series shares the same language - pale subject, clean ground - they connect to each other easily, which is exactly what makes them good raw material for a pair or a set. Three approaches that work: a balanced pair either side of a bed or sofa (two 50x70 cm units at about ₪745 each), a trio on a wide wall in one format (three 50x70 cm panels from ₪1,235 in canvas, spanning about 170 cm), or one large 100x150 cm piece at about ₪1,540 when you have a single central wall. One important rule: if you assemble a set yourself, choose birds of the same energy level - a peacock and a crane together will compete, while a dove, a swan and a heron will agree. Details → guide.
The white-bird series holds ten works: Moon Owl, Snowy Owl, Swan in White, Dancing Crane, Dove of Light, White Peacock, Heron in Silence, White Falcon, Royal Cockatoo and King of Wings. All are built on the same principle - a pale bird on a clean ground, with no busy background.
Yes, and it is one of the safest choices. A white bird on a clean ground brings a light value rather than a new hue, so it does not clash with the sofa colour - grey, beige, blue or black. Above a 3-seater choose 100x150 cm, and above a 2-seater 80x120 cm.
Swan in White, Dove of Light or Heron in Silence - all three carry calm energy and a quiet palette. Recommended size above a double bed: 70x100 cm (about ₪1,240 in canvas), or a pair of 50x70 cm pieces either side of the bed, with each centre at 145-150 cm.
Tempered glass sharpens the feather edges and adds a sense of light - especially noticeable on the peacock, the swan and the cockatoo. Matte canvas keeps things soft and suits a bedroom. At 70x100 cm: about ₪1,240 in canvas against about ₪1,620 in glass, VAT included.
Yes. Every work in the series shares the same visual language, so they combine easily. Choose three birds of the same energy level - for instance the dove, the swan and the heron - in the same size and format. Three 50x70 cm units start at about ₪1,235 in canvas and span about 170 cm.
