Wholesale 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.
