I am obsessed with this turkey vulture.
I've been hired by @birdsoftheworld.bsky.social as an illustrator through the Bartels program and I couldn't be more excited to start! This has been a dream of mine for years.

My Turkey vulture has been finished for a while so I am finally sharing that too! 🐡🪶🎨 #BirdArt

First, book banners came for school libraries

Then, school librarians

Then, public libraries

Then, public librarians

Then, little free libraries

Then, bookstores

Then, publishers

Then, academic libraries

Then, the national archives

Then, the library of congress

PETITION: Don't Ban Books in the United States
Proposed censorship measures in several states could deny your right to read some books in our Nation's libraries and lead to librarians facing criminal charges for the books on the shelves.

Beautiful
Ever get in way over your head with an illustration? Cuz I am with this turkey vulture on a very large piece of watercolor paper 😅

Work in progress! Note to self: buy smaller pieces of paper.

Edgar Allan Poe was big into code cracking. He once challenged readers of a Philadelphia paper to stump him with coded messages, deciphering dozens before having to “swear off” cryptograms forever. More on how code factors into his stories here: buff.ly/2OByWXF

From a trip to the coast along the Columbua River last summer, we found a favorite roosting tree of multiple Turkey Vultures.
