Superb work. But am gonna have to to a bit of "sober-study of salient features."
Never mix bird ID and art I keep telling myself...
Thanks Phil and Colleen. I'm continuing to switch media here. This time a Caran d'Ache Neocolor II water-soluble crayon sketch of a Wild Turkey and Double-crested Cormorant.
I saw this odd scene at Metzger Marsh in Ohio last May. I did many sketches and took many photos of the 'wild' turkey. But I never noticed the cormorant in the canal until I got home and looked at the photos. So this is based on a number of photos taken at the time. The juxtaposition is an itch that I've been meaning to scratch for some time. Not sure whether I'll eventually develop it into something else.
