Ostrich Egg Art
Original pen & ink
drawings on real ostrich eggs!
Ann has been drawing animals on ostrich eggs for over 20 years. At anywhere
from 6 to 12 eggs per year, that adds up to at least 200 eggs! She got
involved
in this unique craft when she worked at the Sacramento Zoo. Each year, the
Zoo
commissions Ann's illustrated ostrich eggs to be used as prizes at events
and gifts for donors and staff. Ann has also donated a number of ostrich
eggs to the
Folsom Zoo and accepts private commissions. If you are interested in ordering
your own one-of-a-kind ostrich egg, please contact
Ann for more information.
Prices start at $100.
