A few new illustrations done mostly in my sketchbook. These like many of the earlier ones are part of a long term project that is slowly drawing to a conclusion. Hopefully I will have more to report early next year.
I found this Loon feather washed up on the beach along with quite a few more. Not sure if these were part of their natural moult or if a bird had died. The black area had a slightly greenish-purple sheen - depending on the light.
During last winter, it had snowed overnight and when we walked down to the lake, most areas will still covered with a layer of snow. These Lord of Baltimore seed heads looked wonderful against the bluish-grey of the water. Done on Strathmore watercolor paper, the Black Vulture and Loon feather are about 5 x 8 inches each, the seed heads about 10 x 8 inches.
