Ornithography By Jessica Roux
From the creator of Floriography and the Woodland Wardens Oracle Deck comes this beautifully illustrated exploration of the folklore, mythology, and history surrounding our favorite winged companions. Birds have inspired us since the dawn of time: their elegance in flight, captivating colors, and delicate mannerisms spark hope, joy, and delight. Cultures around the world have historically looked to birds as sacred messengers, intermediaries between earth and sky, including them in myths and legends and using them to teach moral lessons and historical truths.
In Jessica Roux’s Ornithography, each of 100 entries focuses on one bird species, featuring a full-page color illustration in her detailed, darkly romantic style and the lore behind each bird. The perfect gift for birdwatchers, gardeners, and history buffs, as well as all readers who appreciate nature, mythology, and art.
Our Process
Finding Inspiration
I believe wholeheartedly that artistic inspiration can come from anywhere! Whether it's bridesmaid dresses, a walk in the park, or even Italian bathroom tile, I'm always looking for that little something that will spark my next pattern or collection.
Putting Pen to Paper
Before there were products, there were canvases. This all started as a small side hustle, a way for me to pursue my passion for painting. Eventually I made the transition to digital art, and some of my original canvas paintings went on to become my earliest patterns! I drew them on my iPad, turning them into repeating designs like Black Floral and Summer Meadows. Now repeating patterns are the heart of my business.
Intentional Design
Creating a new pattern is just the start. The next question is, what to do with it? I'm always brainstorming new product ideas and listening to customer suggestions as I expand my line. Quality and good intention are the core of our production. I prioritize sourcing products from manufacturers who value sustainability and uphold ethical employment practices, so you can both look and feel good when using EBD products.
Making it Real
There's no feeling like getting my hands on a new delivery. Seeing my art on a perfected product just doesn't get old! We want you to have that same feeling when you open your mail, which is why we carefully quality check every item before packing your order up and sending it your way.
