Hawk drawing after another week of “light” work
It was a week of light work, both hour-wise and pencil pressure-wise. I decided to move ahead by lightly layering in most of the hawk, so that I can see where this drawing is going. I think there’s something about working on the blue background that makes it a little more challenging to develop, so I thought that this might help me out. So, here is my drawing after a “light” week. I’m finding the holidays very intrusive on my studio time, and hope to have more time this weekend and next week to concentrate on drawing.
Debbi – love the way the colors are developing against the blue of the paper. : )

Thanks Lynda. Blue and Brown and cream are one of my all-time favorite color combinations.

That is one dead hawk.
On a serious note, I think the feathers on his/her chest are particularly well-done. They make the belly look so soft.
