Bird Illustration with Linda Feltner

GNSI-DC Chapter hosted renowned illustrator and GNSI President Linda Feltner for an evening presentation. Linda's engaging talk covers her background as an artist and birder, and shares many of her techniques to portray live birds and their behavior.

More than two thirds of this lovely publication is filled with full pages of images and details of the watercolors, oil paintings, etchings, engravings, and woodcuts selected to illustrate Little Beasts’ central themes: the evolution of natural history in Europe beginning in the 15th century, and the work of Joris Hoefnagel and Jan van Kessel the Elder, two Flemish artists and contributors to the discipline of descriptive natural history during the 16th and 17th centuries.
