From the "Little Birds" series—10x8" original charcoal drawing.
I'm very fond of the black, white and gray palette. The Canada Goose is already decked out in this color scheme. Did you know they have white eyelids? From a distance, it looks like the eye is open when they're actually sleeping. Genius! This series is presented on gesso panels mounted to 3/4” New Zealand pine. The image area is highly textured and details are scratched into the dry and liquid charcoal. After a splash of metallic bronze acrylic, the art is sealed with an archival fixative for a dramatic, frameless presentation. Ready to hang as is, or framed as desired.
