Beautifully Detailed Owl Illustration

Something a little different -- a gorgeous Victorian scientific ornithological illustration of a Hawk Owl.  Owls are one of my favorite birds, without a doubt, and I love birds.  The detail and soft watercolor painting in this picture are amazing.  I hope to bring you many more birds and animals in the future!  Remember the image is large, and you can resize it very large or print it very small if needed for charms, jewelry, etc.

Fairy Tale Art: Finding A Little Man in the Enchanted Forest

Here to enjoy is a fairy tale illustration by one of the most famous and beloved Victorian illustrators of children's books, Arthur Rackham. 

Mother Rabbit and Little Rabbits (Hares, Actually) Victorian Art

 I thought this title page from an antique children's book, "The Ballad of the Lost Hare," was just lovely.  I like rabbits (and hares) and this is a sweet realistic Victorian illustration of a mother and babies, with a yellow rose and lovely soft colors.

Wildflower Botanical Print

This is a page scanned from an old botanical garden book.  The picture is an illustration of Sweet Alyssum -- I'm sure this is a European variety but I've had alyssum in my garden here in the South too.  It's a lovely print, and perfect for late May when spring is starting to turn into summer.  Enjoy and come back!  (Look in the lefthand navigation panel to follow me by google, email, or pinterest!)

Anything garden or woodland or having to do with birds, I'm fond of.  I hope you're fond of this cute little vintage image, adapted from an antique Victorian nature book, showing a blackbird's nest and egg.
