one of my role model in illustration, a Swedish illustrator Lars Jonsson. I just found this book from the library. It is amazing how he illustrate those birds with their own spirit. http://www.larsjonsson.se/frameset1.htm
The book... Vlad, I think you will love it. a lot of eurasia shore birds which we are more familiar with... it's remind me all the great time in the field.
I agree, I really love his style either sketch or painting. His illustration was heavily based on the field observations, I think that is the reason he catch "the feel" so well.
I am a biologist grew up with a fishing rod in my hands. I have been fortunate enough to embrace my love of art and science in my career. Most of my free time were well spent in the nature, either studying bird behavior or chasing variety of fish with fly rods. My favorite art medium is watercolors, I love the natural and spontaneous feel created by watercolor pigments. I am currently a post-doctoral research fellow at Harvard University. Welcome to my website. Mark
