My latest drawing of a bird.
Based on a mother sparrow feeding her fledgling at the bird feeder outside my front window. For sale at Artfinder: https://www.artfinder.com/product/fledgling-and-mother-sparrow/
This is a portrait I did based on a photo sent me. I used graphite, charcoal, ink and iridescent, gold pastel. It is 29.7 by 42.0 cm. See my shop for commissioning a portrait.
Commissioned portrait of little girl
Mother sparrow and baby outside my window
All the adults flew away when I came out with my camera, leaving this baby sparrow perched on its branch, doing all it could just to stay balanced. At last its mother came back!
