Josh Brill’s Flora Fauna: Birds Edition print collection, via his label Lumadessa, is a beautiful, modern take on field guide bird illustrations.
When it comes to wildlife illustrations with a heavy dash of geometry, especially birds, it’s difficult to avoid comparisons to Modernist superstar Charley Harper (just look to our recent post on Eleanor Grosch). But I think Josh’s work has enough of its own unique flavour here to set him apart from Harper’s legacy. His shapes are certainly more digital in nature, and these birds look almost typographic in their abstraction. I’m going to go load up my iPhone with his wallpapers now.
