Birds of a feather...
AUDREY CORREGAN
Perceptive, conceptual photographer Audrey Corregan chose to photograph majestic, stuffed birds from behind; perhaps in an attempt to get to the bottom of the issues of taxidermy and the transition from living animal to anonymous object. The nature of these beautiful photographs transforms the taxidermy birds into merely pleasing patterns and shapes, now unrecognisable as beasts and curiously challenging aesthetically.

Art deco and ecology
Eugene Alain Seguy
Eugene Alain Seguy was
one of the foremost French designers at the beginning of the 20th
century. Working in both the Art Deco and Art Nouveau styles, he
published many design folios utilizing the pochoir technique, a printing
process that employs a series of stencils to lay dense and vivid
color.
Eugene Alain Seguy
produced eleven albums of illustrations and designs from the turn of
the century to the 1930s, and his style reflected the influences of both
Art Nouveau and Art Deco.http://www.puregreenmag.com/pure-green-blog/zoological-beauty

Textile Project
I really want to work with textiles in my next project. I love ethnic textiles for their boundless eclectic patterns and vibrant colors. Mexican textiles and African prints are the most intriguing to me. I've been brainstorming with using a scanner to capture the texture and color schemes of some piece of fabric I own.
