This weeks colours for The Summer of Color are 2 purples and a yellow and this is what I did with them. Not my favorite colours so really racked my brain trying to think how I could use them and which bird to use. Decided to go with a juvenile Golden Eagle since I don't have any photos of a purple bird :p I think I prefer the black background, the yellow seems to stand out more against it. Which do you prefer?
Very atmospheric sketch. Was this from a real skull you had in front of you? I've got a mega lower jaw bone from a wild boar sitting above me on the cupboard, but haven't felt I could do a sketch justice.
ReplyDeleteThe teeth freak me out also - way too human.
Love it - looks like today was a better day! :D

ReplyDeletecindy, its from a photo. Neither the college or myself have a horse skull, they have all kinds of other skulls. I really want a real horse skull but they are not cheap :/
