From Board Game to Beautiful Book: The women Wingspan artists produce a companion book
Artists and Wingspan board game illustrators Natalia Rojas and Ana Maria Martinez have released a companion book Celebrating Birds, a stand alone field guide featuring their artwork from the North America edition of the game.
Rojas and Martinez are significant as female artist contributors to the birding field guide world, long dominated by male artists, and the story behind the book’s publication involves a team of women from the designer of the Wingspan game to written content creators to publisher, in addition to the artists.
