BIRD ILLUSTRATION



Here are a few illustrations I did a long time ago for a proposed book of birds. The plate above was to include Little and Chinese Egrets (you can faintly see the pencil outlines) but only the Great Egret was completed.



This plate included some of the tern species seen in South-east Asia, again not completed mainly because I couldn't find a publisher willing to sponsor the time and money to do the project. Both illustrations gouache on paper, size about 11" x 7".

Nice illustrations Jeremy. I tried to break into the illustration market several times. I found it to be a closed world and finally gave up on it.

A pity the book project never came off: - I'd have liked to have seen more of your work in a single volume.
