A detail and print made for Ghost of Gone Birds. This was such a wonderful project to be involved with. We hosted the exhibition / project at Liverpool School of Art & Design for Ceri Levy and Good Pilot team. http://www.ghostsofgonebirds.com. Each artist / illustrator / designer could choose an extinct bird, or a bird on the endangered list. I chose the South Island Piopio. It was an ugly little fella, but had a lovely song. A bit like Kanye West or Cee Lo Green. If you’re clever, you’ll notice that all my names are great singers, who have passed away. The style is part of an ongoing research project on calligraphy and street writing / tags.
This is bloody gorgeous Mike – good work on the new blog!
