Swan

Series

These are selected swan images featured in the forthcoming book Swan – A True Life Fairy Tale, created in collaboration with the renowned author and dear friend Barbara Bullock-Wilson. I am delighted and grateful to be part of this collaboration.

Swan – A True Life Fairy Tale tells the story of a wondrous real-life encounter between a woman and a wild swan. Vividly written by author Barbara Bullock-Wilson, the daughter of renowned artists Wynn and Edna Bullock, and luminously illustrated with images by Austrian photographer Nicola Hackl-Haslinger, this beautifully crafted book offers an inspiring, heart-opening, life-enriching account of universal love and connection with the natural world of which we all are a part.
