My latest pencil drawing is of a “Bateleur,” an African eagle, that I saw at the North Carolina Zoo in Asheboro. This drawing took me a lot longer than any of my previous recent drawings – I spent almost two weeks on it (2-3 hours a day here and there) just trying to get all the feather details as close to accurate as I could.
Original drawing SOLD.
