Day 14

A mere 50 Attwater's Prairie Chickens live in the wild. They are native to the coastal prairie land of Texas and Southwestern Louisiana. Development has eradicated their fragile habitat.

Through efforts of places like Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in Glen Rose, Texas these interesting birds are returning to the wild. This Saturday Fossil Rim is celebrating its 25th anniversary by hosting an outdoor concert and benefit called Bandanas, Boots, & Bison. I am donating this sketch to the auction that will be held that afternoon.

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.
