We were having a thunder storm, so I figured I’d do a sketch waiting for my markers to get here. I ended up getting carried away and inking it right away. I put a few layers of fixatif on it, and I'm hoping that'll stop the paint/ink from bleeding too much when I apply the markers.
This was a bird that escaped from the local zoo and turned up in my neighbourhood. A few volunteers managed to capture it and return it but before they did they managed to get some great photos. It was the insipiration for this drawing. I think it is an african starling.
It's not a KFC chicken, it's the ATS chicken, 'cause everything looks better in American Tribal Style (if you don't know it, google it and enjoy all the beauty of the dance and costumes ;)
it’s basicly an ink drawing with acrylics underneath on canvas. This is a detail of the big picture. I photographed it and then layered it with its mirrored picture.
