Di Dodo
This piece is from British illustrator, Ralph Steadmanâs Extinct Boids series. A wonderful collection of drawings of birds that once lived on earth, alongside some that only ever existed in Steadmanâs incredible imagination.
Captured in a riot of expression and colour, the collection is a perfect showcase of Steadmanâs style, and with invented species including the âNeedless Smutâ, the âNasty Ternâ and the âGob Swallowâ, quite the reflection of the artistâs sense of humour too.
Each artwork in the series began life with the artist flicking wet ink onto the canvas. Those splashes were then used to inspire the background, shape and feathers of the star of the piece â in this instance, a fictitious friend for the famous dodo.
Di Dodo comes from a limited edition of 36. It has deckled edges and is signed by the artist.
