“Jackie Besteman’s bird portraits intrigue. Clearly, they are exquisitely executed and achieved. I am also a fan of her bold colour sense. Nevertheless, it is the power of the birds that haunt and stir interest. I am reminded of fairytales by Hans Christian Andersen and Oscar Wilde as well as Alfred Hitchcock’s terrifying film” Natasha Fraser Cavassoni ( author of After Andy, Lou Lou de la Falaise, Harold and Sam Spiegel)

Welcome to my dedicated bird stationary shop. My love for and knowledge of birds has been growing daily. I have joined the millions of bird lovers in my admiration for them and as an illustrator they inspire me endlessly. Consequently my collection is also growing. Please keep checking in!

ABOUT ME

I am an illustrator and painter who has become more and more intrigued by birds. I have recently started putting my bird illustrations on greeting cards, keychains and stickers for all the bird lovers and the lovers of bird lovers out there. Learning more about birds is an exciting mission and I hope to educate others in the process.

Over the years I have collected my own collection of meaningful greeting cards and I hope that my images will be enjoyed the same way.
