Today I share a fun little card I made for my mother-in-law’s birthday a couple years ago. She sings in a local community chorus, was feeling a bit of her age at the time, and has always appreciated a good joke.

She loved it!

All my stuff is #HumanMade . I paint it, print it in my own studio, and package it up all myself.

Product photograph of an illustrated greeting card featuring a Turquoise-browed MotMot perched on a branch wearing a viking helmet with a long gold braid. It is surrounded b y a deep teal and blue textured background and a circular motif. Text on the bottom says, “She ain’t singin’ yet!"

I listed a Turquoise-Browed Motmot in my art shop today! It’s one of my very very favorite images and it’s finally a greeting card:

It’s already the focus of a set of 55 print-it-yourself digital download stationery papers that I deeply love and use myself:

I’m thrilled that I can share this with you! I’ve used this bird in SO many ways—I even put a Viking horned helmet on it with braids for yet another card:

These birds are from Central America, and just stunningly beautiful! I love their tails!

AND finally—here’s a free phone wallpaper version for your phone! Woohoo!

Enjoy!

Illustrated phone wallpaper of a Turquoise-Browed Motmot perched on a branch. Behind the bird is a brown paper texture with a teal gradient at the top and Bokeh lighting effects. Surrounding the bird is crosshatching and a double halo of green light. The bird is dramatically lit in a spotlight effect, emphasizing some of its yellow coloration.

А после них ещё оставалось время на соседний сенот X'Canché. Я колебался идти или не идти, так как пешком там пара километров, а последние дни и так были напряжёнными. Но пошёл и не прогадал - наконец-то встретил момота. В Коста-Рике только их гнезда (точнее норы) видел.

Бурый момот/turquoise-browed motmot/Eumomota superciliosa.
Очень забавный хвост.
Непонятно, кому пришло в голову назвать птичку бурой. Когда впервые увидел английское название, то прочитал browed как brown(не иначе как эффект прайминга 😀).
Сразу после посещения Чичен-Итцы отправился на менее известные руины Ek Balam.

I got my first set done! Woohoo!

I used one of my favorite bird images I made last year, and created a set of 23 different stationery pages plus 9 envelopes! Then I stuck it in a digital downloadable pack and made some graphics and voila!!

My first bird-themed print-it-yourself digital stationery pack!!

I'm really happy with this one! I think the papers are a really nice balance of options between fancy "headliner image" pages and "supplementary" pages that don't have a lot of visuals competing for the reader's attention. I think letters can be composed in more than just the writing! The bird, a Central American Turquoise-Browed Motmot, is a favorite image of mine--so much so that I used it on my art calendar last year!

The pack is for sale here: https://goimagine.com/turquoise-browed-motmot-printable-stationery-printable-writing-paper-with-envelope-lined-and-unlined-digital-notepaper-instant-download/

And here: https://coreyartuscommunity.com/products/turquoise-browed-motmot-bird-print-it-yourself-55-piece-stationery-pack

I'm so happy with this!! It's the first in a long line of stationery packs because I think the birds were simply made for this!! I get to play with textures and images and graphics all at the same time! Woot!!

More packs to come! Wooho!

So my discovery that I could make my own notepads sent me hurtling down a rabbit hole, and I spent all day using my bird images to make lined and unlined stationery papers! I’ve been struggling trying to figure out graphics using my bird imagery because my birds are so richly dark, and that’s a problem when it comes to paper… I mean, what’s the point of using a pretty stationery if you can’t read what you just wrote?!

But I think I figured something out that lets me indulge in some texture fun that I absolutely love! I now have an approach to using my birds in a way that won’t darken too much of the paper, with out my needing to crop each one into something that looks like an afterthought…

I’m so excited about these! I’ll be packaging several together and putting them up for sale as print-it-yourself digital downloads in my shops soon at https://coreyartuscommunity.com/collections/all and my shop at Goimagine: https://goimagine.com/coreyartusimagery/ .

But I thought I’d share one set here, just for sneak peek funsies!

This little sampler has JPGs of a single sheet of paper with lined & unlined versions as well as a business-sized envelope. I like to print them borderless, but I know most printers don’t do that and they should look just fine with a nice white margin around them defining their edges!

Enjoy!

I went from not knowing of the existence of the mot mot to seeing two different types of motmots and being in awe of both.
