LOSING ALTITUDE KICKSTARTEEEER! 

Just about 600$ away from the half way funding mark!

These samples are so pretty!! Losing Altitude is a small project set to produce an art book and a deck of cards of threatened bird species. The art book (available in soft and hard cover) will feature a quick blurb of information about each depicted bird that will include conservation efforts being made for them.

I don’t believe kickstarter allows direct charity projects? But many artists in the project are choosing to donate the proceeds of their work to a bird focused charity (the charity is not chosen yet, I guess we’re crossing that hurdle when funding actually happens.)

My bird of choice will be the Ivory Gull. Rough drawing of that is in the works, hopefully soon, before the kickstarter is over I can post that.

The funding goal is 5,500!

So please go look at the kickstarter.

Please reblog in addition to or in place of donating if you’re unable to donate? Spreading the word would be so helpful!

Wow, and here I thought I couldn't be more frustrated with this country this morning.
