I'm currently boarding a short idea featuring a pigeon, so I thought I'd put in some bird gesture practice! These are a mix of 30- and 60-second drawings. I want to practice wings more, and really get to grips with how they work.

Study Squares #3
I struggled with this one. Choosing the colour and getting the texture right was difficult, and I don't feel I've completely succeeded in either area. This was a study of a canvas bag. I guess I need to paint more cloth!
