  • Hi everyone!
    I hope you are doing well.
    In this video I'll share 7 beautifully illustrated vintage books I got from Amazon and WOB (Links below) for reference. I've always been fascinated by natural history since I was a kid, and looking at these books just fills me with inspiration to create as an artist. I hope they inspire you too!
    XOXO

      @@coloredcarol8074 Unfortunately, I don't have space now, but back when I did, I used to go charity shops as you did and buy books there. These books about nature or gardening, they don't get old if well treated & they're endless source of inspiration.
