ILLUSTRATION, SELF DIRECTED

"Party Birds", An Illustration Series

This project was created after a friend mentioned seeing a nuthatch that looked like it was ‘late for a party’. After the nuthatch illustration was finished, I began polling other friends for what birds they’d like to see with party hats. Before I knew it, I had a fleet of party-ready birds on my hands.
 
The Party Birds series was soon translated to greeting cards. To date, they are one of the most popular items I have sold online and in-person, and I have gotten numerous requests for lots of other birds!
