Piet Rozendaal
Piet Rozendaal, born in 1946 in Zwijndrecht, is an expert on exotic birds. The artist, charmed by the work of the Englishman John Gould and the Australian illustrator William Thomas Cooper, describes his style as photographic. "I try to paint animals as much detailed as possible.†For inspiration and to portray the birds so accurately as possible, Rozendaal visit regular their natural habitats, such as the virgin forests of Brazil and Peru.
