Long pose day, so only a few, brief warm-up gestures..
Long pose, toned paper - about 2 hours...
It stopped raining long enough to take a brief meander outside, and remember what a lovely place I have to go drawing every week... This time of year, we have an enormous paddling of ducks that hangs out around our buildings ( a small sampling of which you can see here...)
Lots of ducks - mallards, wood ducks, domestic white ducks, as well as Canadian geese and a number of crows....
...all being herded around a bit by the various local, lovely roosters...
...and to celebrate, I ate a curried chicken pasty from the British tea shop next door. An all bird day!
