A fitting and equally playful sequel to his hit sketchbook A Book of Birds<\/em>, published by the Royal Academy in 2019 alongside Ben Thomas’s authoritative monograph on the artist, this delightful new collection taken from his many travelogs captures all Ocean’s wry enjoyment of the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
