Project V Day Nine: Oak Leaf

This oak leaf was a cooperative model.

So, below is the grid shot for Day Niner and I can't help but question the original intention...and I quote, "Each section works as an individual drawing but it's existence is necessary to complete one large composition", end quote.

The first few days of the project I just randomly picked a square and banged out a drawing. Bam. Done. Now I pick a subject according to shape and color and must select a square with balance in mind. The outside squares are determining my square for the day and what it will contain. Does that still make each square wholly unique and complete? How could it? Ultimately each square is simply a cog in the big machine but the machine is the "it"...the single entity. Words, words, words....

Day 24: Willow Grouse, 12x9"

Willow Grouse in the house!

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 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 ?
