For my Digital Design in Communication class, I was tasked with creating a potential book jacket for "Arthur Singer - The Wildlife Art of an American Master" by Alan and Paul Singer. This postcard was designed to match my book jacket design with the intention that they would be cohesive in a gallery gift shop setting. (Part 2 of 2) (Fall 2017)

1. ARTHUR SINGERTHE WILDLIFE ART OF AN AMERICAN MASTER
BY
ALAN SINGER AND PAUL SINGER

2. The idea of painting all species of North American birds began with John
James Audubon in the early 1800s. Other wildlife artists soon followed,
embracing his passion and focus. Arthur B. Singer was among one of those
artists who perfected the painting skills and technique required to capture,
not only the essence of his subjects, but give his art aesthetic appeal based on
scientific observation.
Influenced by Rungius, Fuertes, and Kuhnert, Singer’s fascination with
drawing and painting began when he was a young teenager. In this first
biography, Arthur Singer, The Wildlife Art of an American Master, sons Paul
and Alan describe a career of more than forty years,w accompanied by vivid
color reproductions of his extensive artwork.
Included in Singer’s biography are several unpublished works not yet seen by
his collectors or fans. Some of these images include sketches of American jazz
artists, Cab Calloway, Fats Waller and Duke Ellington, whom he befriended
in the late 1930s. In this book are paintings Singer created while traveling the
world or preparing additions to his volumes on ornithology.
