Artist of the Day: Peggy McNamara

Yesterday my buddy MaryW and I went to the Field Museum to see the Extreme Mammals and Maharajah shows. Then we wandered through stuffed and taxidermied African animals into birds ditto. In birds we found an astonishing display of art depicting birds by Audubon, Agassiz and Peggy McNamara. Peggy's watercolors sparkle bringing life to the birds that pop off the paper. Peggy is the museum's artist in residence.
