A Black and White Hawk

            The theme for Michael's Scribble Picnic this week is 
                                      BLACK and WHITE. 

I have to confess that this sketch isn't new. I did it last year from a photograph I took of a hawk sitting in the top of a tree at the edge of my daughter's yard in New York. 

I really wanted to do something with a newspaper in it. You know, the old 'What is black and white and read all over?' thing. But, I've been on a trip and just did not have time when i returned. 

So... ta da... here it is.

  3. Hi Latane :) That is a very pretty drawing. I am not very good at portraits at all, animal or human! I'm always impressed to see how people can do it! Bravo! :)

  13. A pair of hawks lives in my neighborhood and I see them perched like this all the time. It's great that something from the vault that fit the theme so well.
