Pink Liar





Two fabric/pattern designs from this weeks museum bird drawings with Bridbird. We had a Galah and a Lyrebird and a crested pigeon that looked a little bit punk and had some beautiful colours in the wing. My drawings this week are going to be turned into screenprints straight from the drawing. Normally I trace or draw the stencils from the museum drawings but this time I drew them so I can cut directly from the paper. I will print them up next week and have cut one out already. The lyrebird is a bit big for making bags or cushions so I think I will just stretch it over a frame instead.

Loving those lyrebirds, so elegant. Kind of one extreme to the other with lyrebirds and galahs, huh!

I do love your bird theme, as I think I've told you a bazillion times before.
I love the movement you capture.
