Dozens of intricately rendered birds and flowering plants tumble across a deep black ground in a dense, overlapping composition that recalls classical natural history illustration. Warm yellows, oranges, reds, and greens create pockets of luminosity throughout, while the ornithological subjects perch, fly, and nest among blooming flora in a timeless celebration of avian and botanical diversity. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
