Those aren't failures!!!! They're absolutely glorious and capture the feline form perfectly in a delightfully simple way :t: I love them!

Your comments are always motivating!
Attached now, a study of a juvenile Great northern diver, sketched yesterday with the aid of a telescope in small lake close to Munich..Note the unusually extended tip of its upper mandible...The first time I`ve seen such a bird in life and not easy at all to sketch it..I had to follow it all the time with the scope and wait a lot because it was diving all the time ...

Stunning yet again Sir

 

[abbotalefan]

Superb.

It sounds like the zoo is the place to get up close and do some detailed studies. Is this the case, and get practice. Do you use other equipment / techniques when out in the field?
Lovely cormorant with the feather and eyes.

Just dabbling in pencils / pen at the moment. Not up too the quality here, but hopefully will get better in time.

you keep motivating us Paschalis. I hope Bic is sending you free pens by now.
