Riassunto:

A delightful new small-format collection of Carry Akroyd's birds of the month linocut artworks

Informazioni sugli autori: Carry Akroyd is a painter and printmaker living in Northamptonshire. Landscape and wildlife are her usual subjects, and as a keen bird-noticer, birds usually fly into her artworks. Accidentally becoming an illustrator, Carry has created black-and-white and colour illustrations for poetry collections, natural history books and many book covers. Her prints illustrate the long-standing Bird of the Month column in The Oldie, written by John McEwen. Carry and John's first book, A Sparrow's Life's as Sweet as Ours, was published by Bloomsbury in 2019.

John McEwen was born in Berwickshire, pink-footed goose country, in 1942. John has been art critic of The Spectator and The Sunday Telegraph, author of artist monographs, edited the ornithologist Henry Douglas-Home's memoir The Birdman and was arts editor of The Field. He is a regular contributor to Country Life and a founder of The Oldie, to which he contributes Bird of the Month with Carry Akroyd.
