Bird Brain #1 coming out for SF Zine Fest


The first issue of my ongoing nature journal series, Bird Brain, will be released for the upcoming San Francisco Zine Fest! I'm really excited, I've had these illustrations and journal entries sitting around for nearly a year, and I'm really happy to have them out.

Also, in the spirit of maintaining some regularity with releases of Bird Brain, I'm going to be updating this blog on a semi-frequent basis, with my sketches, thoughts, and journal entries regarding birds and nature. Coming shortly: A few of my notes from a canoeing trip on the Russian River in June!

Thanks for your interest!

Owls
Great Blue Heron

I hope that as Bird Brain develops it might become an outlet for all sorts of nature writing and illustration from me, but for now I'm happy with just getting to spend some time observing and drawing the world around me.
