Animals on books

Lately i have been busy creating sketchbooks/journals. I came across a large handful of National Audubon Society books from the 70's. I then took the front and back covers of the books and chose an animal of my desire to draw on the front cover of my "new" book.

I drew on the covers with a wood burning tool, so that the image would not fade or smear after time. I also added some colorful handmade paper to give the journals some more life.

I will be creating and selling sketchbooks/journals and small encaustic works for this event.
