What’s so special about Arctic Tern, the Audubon bird painting?
- Audubon – hunter turned lover
- Blue moves the Arctic Tern
- Feet make the bird
As a child I loved Arctic Tern by John James Audubon. I grew up outdoorsy. So, I pored over his collection of bird paintings. This classic guidebook series, The Birds of America, also works like an art collection. Audubon accomplished masterworks like this one thanks to his heartfelt love of nature. But he also trained with French master Jacques Louis David.
