Downy woodpecker contemplates the branch
Morning practice. Little by little I’d like to sketch and paint all the wildlife on my university campus. Most of it goes unnoticed, even the large animals like deer and turkeys that sometimes wander through at night.
Watercolors are fairly new to me and I’m having fun exploring how to use them to express volume and gesture and shape with a minimum of color and of brushstrokes. Such a meditative practice.
