Damaged Dictionaries for Animal Drawings

00-Animal-Drawings-Kristy-Patterson-www-designstack-co
Damaged Dictionaries for animal drawings. The artist is a lover of books and wants to make it clear that she doesn't use pristine ones. Rather, damaged or have some other defect.

Kristy Patterson from: (Flying Shoes Art Studio. This is how she sums herself up in one sentence: "I am a studio artist and art teacher in my rural, Oklahoma."

I want to point out that Patterson draws more than just animals, That said, this is the theme I have chosen for the post.

There are properties in these illustrations which are very apparent: The lovely style, the drawing/coloring and the treatment of the paper, to give the background more texture. One cool and more subtle aspect, is that each picture/page has the definition of the animal depicted on it.

Fast approaching the weekend, make the best of what is left of this week.

Ps. I gave the images some titles.

    1. So glad you like them. As you said, if done respectfully and properly, the two are a great marriage.

    I love how it looks! I read constantly, so I´m happy the books aren´t really damaged. It looks sorta old, like a journal. It feels like a secret only just now being revealed.

    1. It's the only way you can justify this kind of art.

      Plus as I say above, Kristy Patterson makes it clear that she only uses damaged book that are going to be thrown away.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. 🍃️🌺️🍃️ DS
