Ink Drawings - Birds on Vintage Objects and Machines

Birds model to showcase these fine objects / machines and what a fine job they do.
Perchés, is the title that French artist Steeven Salvat gives to this body of work, that consists of birds perched on vintage and antique machines.  The following is how the artist describes the materials involved in creating these illustrations:  "I worked with watercolor on pastel paper before drawing with 0.13mm Rotring and China ink. At the end, I also added  a little bit of white paint for some lights."  A visit to the past for some, for the rest, a view of the parents and grandparents of modern technology.
