Macaw

Well, the good news is I found out the Derwent black actually isn't a double. It's a much bluer shade of black than the AD black, which is great addition to my pencils. The bad news is I have misplaced the reference photo for my oceanscape. So in light of working on that, I started and finished this one. I am in a strange bird drawing kick lately. This is the third one in two days. It is also the biggest and most developed. I could probably refine it a bit, but I'm trying to not obsess over the details, so I got it to a point that I liked it and then I stopped. It took about an hour and a half.
