I thought it would be fun, and to me anyway, instructive to have a thread of favorite sketches, can be yours or an artist you love, and say why it is your favorite. It should be a sketch from a live bird, not photo or stuffed.
Here is mine, done at the egret trees I've been observing for the last 2 months, nearly every day. Yesterday I did this and this is why it is so perfect in my eyes. First absolute minimum of lines, that exactly describe the forms, to the point I can see it's a snowy and not a great egret. The lines are sure and graceful.
