Day 25

So, since I haven't finished my ring-tailed lemur sketch I felt it necessary to finish a sketch today. This is another baby pygmy hippo. I used everything I could get my hands on in the studio: pastel, charcoal, gouache, pencil...

I've never experienced wanting to spend multiple sittings on a sketch. This is the one that has changed that (along with the other endangered/baby chick sketches). I am truly enjoying
working on this one.

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.

Day 24: Willow Grouse, 12x9"

Willow Grouse in the house!

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 ?
