Day 27: Ceramic Bird, 8x10"

Day 27-so close to the finale!! This is a drawing of a little ceramic bird I got in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It is very wee and when I saw it I knew it would have to live in my studio. I haven't named her so any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Except for the last 4 days, all of the sketches from this project are shrink wrapped and ready for the art fair, Indie Chic at 10th Street which is right around the corner - Dec. 5th! That was the incentive for this round of 30 Sketches Project and I am very much looking forward to it. Would love to see you there. Nothing better than buying local!!

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)

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.
