birdy

Here is a updated for the birdy cover

ended up going for a much more of a doodle look to go with the madness and insanity in the book
Close up of the canary due to its importance in the plot of the story the sketches and marks around the bird show the change in the boys mind slowly thinking he is a bird not a man.

-and ended up sticking with the text after many tests of others :)
