Master sculptor Guy Laramee (previously on Amusing Planet) who specializes in book carving has unveiled his latest series of book sculptures, where he captures the mystique of the native birds of the Brazilian region Serra do Corvo Branco (Range of the White Raven) through both portrait and carved landscape. Entitled Onde Elles Moran (Where They Live), the series consist of nine books the covers of which have been painted with a different sort of bird that’s native to the Serra do Corvo Branco region of Brazil, while the pages were carved and painted to resemble the landscapes that the birds call home.
