And artistic. You are lucky to have it back. I lost some work to Somerset years ago that never got published either. There is an Artist Book show in Ashland Oregon in April of every year and I wondered if maybe you should enter a couple of your books there. Especially this one!

I am so impressed Kim. I love birds too. We have lots of bird feeders in our yard and right now everything just stops whenever we see an Oriel show up. They are bright orange and black and their song is by far the prettiest.

Not the magazine necessarily as I think it is too special for just the magazine, but I mean really published. If you can copy this on a quality printer, you could self-publish and sell a limited run (say 25 or something) on your etsy shop (or something.) Your work deserves special consideration in my opinion. This is a quality art project from a talented original artist. You I mean!!
