This phone takes REALLY sharp photos. Not sure it does pencil sketches any favors.

Finally starting today. Continuing last week's western grisettes. 😁
I'm learning I need to just be patient & not rush my work (just like when I was writing). I have my process and timing. That's okay.

I picked out my shell for today, a flame helmet. But it's been rough physically, and I'm struggling to do anything. 😕

Sometimes you just gotta start over. I scrapped my original bones sketch of the western grisettes I started. It felt like a faulty foundation. This is definitely better.
There's definitely... 1/2

Ready for shading detail.
I like him so far. 😁

Took me a bit, but started some western grisettes for #MushroomMonday.
Weather aches made for a long day. 😒

Going to have to do some thinking about this, I guess.

Near as I can tell (find) macaws don't have the fluff only feathers? So I adjusted to the top feather to remove the upper fluff. Should I keep it or go full fluff? Or 50/50 fluff? Thoughts?

My art assistants finally freed me to start my #FeatherFriday art. My references are brown with polka dots, but I want something more colorful.

Happy Bird Whisperers day! Here's my long Green Jay!
Still learning how to vary pencil shading, even with different grades of graphite.
I like it though!

Progress on my keyhole limpet. Pausing for the evening.
Was hoping to work on more today, but my ADHD brain is tired of the concentration needed. 😝

Figured I'd work on a simpler shell today. It's just an oval.
The shell....

Working on a 5x5 Violet Webcap in the style of the leaves. Debating adding a bit of makeup, which is my signature on larger pieces. Plan is to put 2 or 3 images in a set for sale.
Still working out the details. Thoughts?

Progress. Need a lot more calico markings, and the ears need ridges and markings. Pretty pleased so far.

#SeashellSunday! Still working on last week's calico (It's been a week, ya'all). Will probably take a few more days because, well, calico. 🤷♀️

You'd think a scallop shell would be easy. It's deceptive. All those lines.

Finally working on my scallop from Sunday (shown with references). Took all day to recover from last night's storm.

I had to put in lines. They aren't even, but they give me the 20 ridges most calico scallops have. Well, 19, but close enough? 🤣

Bones for a calico scallop.
I have another book coming tomorrow, though it's not specifically a drawing book for shells (those have disappointed me), but I figured I'd get started tonight.

Working on a red-crowned parrot feather for #FeatherFriday. Might even play with my new #Ohuhu metallic markers. 😏

Today's list: a resketch (my blue oyster makeup version failed), starting the new @birdwhisperers.bsky.social March bird, & shells. I have a book w/PR shells coming today. Excited!
