We have a Raptor Center
Feb. 10th, 2012 10:55 pmHere in the town where I live -- only about five miles from my apartment -- is a raptor rehabilitation facility. I visited yesterday afternoon so I could get some photos of a bald eagle, in order to do this commissioned drawing.

And here he is, drawn today. About 10.5 x 8.5", mixed media on paper.
I really, really like birds, and now that I know the Raptor Center is there and the staff is so friendly, I will be creating more drawings just because I can. The next one is a red-tailed hawk, not a commission but one I just want to do.

The one in this icon, I didn't draw, though I wish I had. It's a piece by Jim Dine.
