64 Beach Birds
About this episode
Australian artist Bridget Farmer shares her love of Australia’s beach birds (like oystercatchers and plovers) and how they inspire her art and children’s books.
Bridget Farmer is originally from Northern Ireland. She initially visited Australia to see friends but fell in love with the country (and a certain Australian man) and stayed longer than expected. She lives in country Victoria with her husband, two young sons, a whole flock of chickens and a studio rabbit. Bridget is a printmaker and her work celebrates Australia’s birdlife and her chooks. She has written and illustrated three children’s books… and there are more on the way.
