Description
The start of the Extinction series.

All the pieces will be done in the style of various historical illuminated manuscripts, each depicting one species that was wiped from this earth due to human activity (so no dinosaurs). The series will just kind of keep going as an open ended project and exercise in typography as the list of animals is unfortunately, rather long.

This particular piece is framed with the second piece in the series, Thylacine, and will be part of the Volunteer Art Show at the Seattle Art Museum during April 18th- May 4th 2008, for those who want to see it in person (and I believe the Rome show is still there too... *lol*).

3.75" x 4.5" on watercolour paper.
Gouache and non-precious gold leaf on raised gesso.

Edit April 2012: I have no idea what's happened with the pic. The link seems to have broken recently. >.< I'll try to reload it when I find the file again, unless it fixes itself before then.
