...in the sky with Diamonds




I am so excited!

A couple months back I spotted a few beautiful bird illustrations online and I just knew I had to have them in my home.
But they had no reference to where they were from or who did them, and so started my mission to find out who the artist was and get my hands on some of her work.

After much googling and searching (what do you google, bird illustrations? Water paint birds?), I eventually found my way to Abby Diamond, the artists behind the canvas. With a  name to search everything became  a lot easier and my eyes were opened to her incredible collection of works.

Having originally  loved just one picture I now found myself wanting them all (typical) and had to narrow down my selection to 3 of my favourites. ( I chose top 6, printed them out, took them home and played until I could commit to only 3, which admittedly is probably too many anyway)

And then the fun part, she sells them online on Society 6 and they ship all around the worlds – yay - so my order is placed and now I have to wait patiently (truth: run and check the postbox daily) until my parcel arrives. I cannot wait.

Here are the three I eventually settled on, but do check her out to see the rest of her designs…
