A few more bird sketches to round out the day. Spent part of my morning at Good Earth State Park near Sioux Falls, taking photos of birds and stopping to sketch them as well. Tonight I worked through these sketches of several downy woodpeckers I saw today. The challenge for me is to draw enough but not too much detail. I’m always happy when I sketch it and then take a photo and the AI recognizes the species from my sketch.

Three illustrations of a woodpecker, including two fully detailed drawings and one unfinished sketch, are displayed on a textured background.
