My insane book A History of Painting: With Dinosaurs is out now as an eBook!

On Apple books here.

Or on Kindle on your local Amazon.

If you do buy it, please consider leaving a review. Self-publishing weird titles like this requires some help from people that actually like it!

Beautiful red hen made out of chicken wire by Helen Godfrey Wire Sculpture i have seen this shared around chicken pages on facebook.

I really liked this hen so i went to the artists page and I am floored at the skill and beauty of these sculptures. Anyone who has built anything with the help of chicken wire knows that it is not an easy material to work with but this artist is able to make very realistic organic shapes with it. I love the softness, i love the wire people and how the wild birds use them as perches.

Runner beans, they are so funny and whimsical

Sculptures about to go to their new home, the hare and owl are amazing and the guineas look just like the real thing lol

Im so thankful that i got to see this artists work its so sweet.

Hi newt! There's an alligator at my work with the same name as you.

Love that they named an animal after another animal, like, "This is my cat, Pigeon."

Beautiful pigeons, everybody. Particularly enchanted by the last one, who appears to be some sort of nun.
