Charley Harper Birdfeeders Thank You Notes

Thank You cards featuring Charley Harper's Birdfeeders illustration.

Describing his distinctive style, which winnowed out all but the most essential details, Charley Harper (American, 1922–2007) said, ”When I look at a wildlife or nature subject, I don’t see the feathers in the wings; I just count the wings.” He asked viewers to “remember that I didn’t start out to paint a bird—the bird already existed. I started out to paint a picture of a bird, a picture which didn’t exist before I came along, a picture which gives me a chance to share with you my thoughts about the bird.”

Ten 3 1/2 x 5 inch blank notecards with “Thank You” printed on the front and white envelopes in an acetate-topped box.
