Day 26

Day 26...4 more days! I am not sure if this Ring-tailed Lemur is aware that there is indeed a baby chick on his back. The last few sketches will follow the endangered species/baby chick format. I've been referring to them as the "Many vs. Few" series.

When I finish this installment of the 30 Sketches Project, I shall drag out the others in this series and put on the finishing details. I have a series of endangered bird paintings in progress which I plan to exhibit and give a portion of the proceeds to an avian conservation organization. But why not do the same with this series of sketches. Possibly thinking of having prints available for these. hmmmm....

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 20

I felt it necessary to do an illustration of the main characters in my pretend children's book entitled, Sheriff Farthright and Bangles: Lost in Los Angeles. Until this day, I never knew I even had a pretend children's book. It is not available in stores near you. Sheriff Farthright is a Yellow-rumped Seed-eater and his faithful steed, Bangles, is a Parrot-finch. Note Farthright's mighty stache. His badge shines as brightly as his character. Bangles is only seconds away from taking to the sky. I can actually hear Audubon rolling over in his grave due to the flagrant misuse of bird depictions.

Project V Day Three: Pecan Husk

Day Three is a pecan husk that Kona and I found on one of our walks.  The sidewalk is littered with them - which means there are lots of pecans - which means there are lots of squirrels.  Lots.  Of. Squirrels.   Apparently pecans are not enough for this overabundant squirrel population so they have taken to eating the apartment complex from the roof down.  I'm 95% sure that within the next couple of weeks they will have eaten the top two floors.   Maybe this is a super special pecan husk and they are desperately trying to reclaim it so that is why they are specifically working on my side of the building.  Well too bad squirrels!  I'm keepin' this husk! Say cheese little pecan husk! Day Three grid aka (1,3)
