Birds by Charley Harper - Book of Postcards

Ever-popular artist Charley Harper held a special affinity for birds. Describing his method of depicting wildlife, which winnowed out all but the most important details, Harper once said, “When I look at a wildlife or nature subject, I don't see the feathers in the wings; I just count the wings.” He asked viewers to “remember that I didn't start out to paint a bird—the bird already existed. I started out to paint a picture of a bird, a picture which didn't exist before I came along, a picture which gives me a chance to share with you my thoughts about the bird.” This book of postcards presents 30 of Harper's beloved avian artworks. 30 color reproductions bound in a handy postcard collection Mail the postcards, or keep the book for your own collection Decorate your office or dorm room with a wall of images Informative introductory text Backs of postcards offer enough room for short messages Perforated for easy removal Oversized postcards may require additional postage Pomegranate's books of postcards feature exclusive selections of art from museums and artists around the world Book: 6.875 x 4.75 x .375 in.
