Landscape and wildlife artist, illustrator and author

Landscape and birds were twin passions in John Busby’s life. In Land Marks and Sea Wings, paintings and drawings spanning more than half a century are accompanied by his perceptive writings. From the Yorkshire of his youth he takes us to his adopted Scotland and on his worldwide travels in search of the wildlife and living landscapes which have inspired his art. The book ends with a trip to the Galapagos Islands where nearly 200 years ago Charles Darwin found a key to unlock the mysteries of evolutions, and where today we can still marvel at the extraordinary diversity of the natural world.
The present volume demonstrates that Busby is both an inspirational teacher and a major artist in his own right – Mark Cocker in the Times Literary Supplement
