Swan study skins in the Field's collections:

This was a commission done a few months ago for someone I met at our school's winter art sale! It gave me a great excuse (not that I really need one) to check out the swan and peacock study skins in the Field Museum. The original is about 9" x 12"; One of my favorite recent drawings.

Some photos of the AWESOME bird I worked on last week - a Great Blue Heron. This is the second one I've prepared into a study skin. It's bill is as big as my hand and could probably pierce right through it. Crazy.

Well, it's been a very long time - 

My last undergrad semester has proven a worthy opponent to my free time. 

The Undergraduate Exhibition along with multiple scholarship and grant applications (not to mention my regular homework!) overtook the last 2 months and updating had to come to a halt. But now I'm hoping to scrounge together a few minutes to post more regularly. 

Here's a picture from the gallery; the drawings are pretty big - 18" x 24" & 22" x 30" not including the matting.
