Cardinal

charcoal on paper

7" x 9"

I sketched this little guy today while my students worked vigorously on large-scale installation artworks.  It's amazing what the end of the semester can do for productivity in class.  It's sort of like Santa's workshop right now...they're industrious, I'm round and bearded, we're all eating candy...

Anyhow, I really like birds.  I've got at least a dozen bird stories I could tell at this very moment, but I'll save them for another time.  Or I might forget them.  "What kind of bird are you?"
