Spent Thanksgiving in Santa Barbara with my wonderful family and visited the SB Natural History Museum with my great friend and fellow artist Kristen Moore (check out her work!) They had an AMAZING new bird exhibition.
Quick sketches of my parents relaxing while the turkey cooked...
Lastly, a speedy gouache and ink painting of Joseph Gatt from a life-painting workshop.
I hope you all had a lovely and delicious Thanksgiving!
Excellent stuff! I love the drawings of your parents. Dead on. The bird exhibit IS great, but your drawings give those stuffed carcasses the appearance of actual life and character. Man we gotta go back, we didn't get to the sea birds or the song birds even. There's like 80 species of ducks we have yet to draw.
