Day 28

I know...I know, I said I was going to finish up this sketch project with the "Many vs. Few" series but I'll tell ya, today I wasn't feeling inspired in that way. I really had a want to do a mixed media piece. So I pulled out the gouache, watercolor pencils, pastels, and charcoal and went to work.

Endangered this baby blue jay is not, but the ominous caption read, "This baby blue jay may not live to see a second summer." Geez, I hope this little guy didn't hear that.

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 7: Roseate Spoonbill, 12x9"

Roseate Spoonbill, you are one interesting looking dude. Their deep pink coloring is similar to a flamingo. They use their unusual beak to feed on crustaceans by swinging it from side to side as it steadily walks through the water.

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.
