Project IV Day 6: Weka

The Weka is a flightless bird native to New Zealand. They are about the size of your average chicken. There is something that I find so fascinating about flightless birds. It's like a fish that can't swim...kinda. You catch my drift.

It's only Day 6 and I'm already having to find ways to squeeze this sketch project into the short amount of hours that make up a day. Solution...start sketching on my lunch break and then wrap it up this evening.

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 ?
