Round Two: 30 Sketches Project Numero Dos (Day 1)

Okay kids...here we go again. 30 Sketches Project Numero Dos - in yo face! I thought I would start off with a bang and go for 2 sketches the first day. These preliminary sketches are for a painting commissioned by my ole high school buddy Miles. It is crazy to think that I haven't seen him in about 15 years but here I am painting an owl for him as a gift for his dad. Miles told me this great Texas ranch story about how his dad found this little guy on his property. There were rescue attempts, a cat was involved, phone calls were made....in short this dude is alright and I get to paint his portrait.

Project IV Day 18: Turkey Vulture (again)

I can't stop with the Turkey Vultures. I think I might have been one in a past life. Is that why I'm such a dirtbag ?

Day 12

I thought I would try something different. I've never sketched/painted a migration pattern. A more detailed series would be fun I do believe.

Day 7

You can see in this baby Magpie's eyes that he is just waiting to grow up and peck your eyes out. Aren't babies of all species supposed to look sweet and kind-hearted? This charcoal and pastel sketch is on a piece of 11"x14" drawing paper. Tuesdays = 12 hour workday which in turn = smaller, meaner sketches.
