The topic for my next art workshop meeting is "birds", and I decided to work with some star charts and bird migration. I found some interesting illustrations in an article about indigo bunting migration and experiments (involving the use of planetariums and changing the constellations on the birds so they tried to migrate north instead of south--all in the service of confirming they use the stars for migration). I combined those circular illustrations with some vintage star charts and an illustration of an indigo bunting pair. It's different color palette than I've used before, but very fun imagery to work with.
