Grumpy Bird

(2) PS Bird, too grumpy to fly, plods along with a scowl that somehow doesn't deter the other animals. An impromptu game of follow-the-leader snaps Bird out of his funk. The landscape is a kaleidoscopic mixed-media collage, superimposing onto photos vibrantly colored doodle-like ink drawings of pastoral scenes. The animals are large and sturdy, appealingly rendered in simple shapes and heavy outline.
