Bird illustrations
Taking my lunch break today I strolled to one of my favourite bookshops, Hill of Content, on a mission to find a book on the artist Hundertwasser for my sister...no luck, but I did find (and buy) this wonderfully illustrated little book...

Aw, love that little bullfinch! So cute.
Hi Lee. This is beautiful!! Such lovely art work. You'd want to buy 2 so you could pull out some pages and frame them. My favourite out of these fellas is the Galah! I followed your link to Chronicle Books and had a bit of fun looking around. Found some terrific little books but luckily managed to avoid a purchase! Have a great weekend!
Oh I love Chronicle Books Lee, they are amongst my very faves. I'm with Julie, that galah is the star!

Hi Lee,
What a beautiful little book you have found!!! Some gorgeous prints, cant wait to see it in the flesh.
I'm sure it will bring you many hours of enjoyment (and I love the fact that this artist is Australian...what a find). Shame about the Hundertwasser book though...will keep looking.

Hi Lee,
Check out Colette's blog (Bird in the Hand) on my sidebar.... I think she has been influenced by this Aussie artist, dont you?
