I've gotten a bit more done on this - and a bit more, yet, since I snapped this shot. Just posting the progress and I do hope to finish it this week, although I'll begin a new colored pencil tomorrow morning during class.My artwork can be seen at my site: South Mountain Sketchbook.
What a difference a season makes! Last spring, a pair of robins labored over twigs, leaves, fluff and who-knows-what until this nest was anchored into a crook in the Japanese maple outside our sitting room window. This winter, the nest has (until recently) supported most interesting snow sculptures! Now it's all melted, and thanks to yesterday's blustery winds, it's looking like a real fixer-upper. I'm putting this morning's quick ink brush/colored pencil drawing in my garden journal.See my work at www.southmountainsketchbook.webs.com
