Charley Harper's Birds Sticker Book

Charley Harper's Birds Sticker Book

During his lifetime, artist Charley Harper (American, 19222007) painted lots and lots of birds. He was raised on a farm in West Virginia, & as a kid he explored the woods and fields near his home, sketching the critters he saw. When he grew up, he developed a unique artistic style. Instead of recording every small detail of his wild subjects, he simplified each animal to its most basic elements. Rather than drawing every feather on a bird, for example, he just drew bold, colorful shapes for the wings, body, beak, and tail. And he always highlighted each animals most familiar featuresthe blur of a hummingbirds beating wings, for example, or the bright red crest of a cardinal. Fifty different birds drawn by Charley Harper are included in this sticker book. Charley wanted his art to show us the amazing variety in nature & how all living things are dependent on each other. Maybe these stickers will inspire you to learn more about the birds that Charley loved so much. Happy stickering!
