Last summer my husband Peter made a nice picture of a lonely feather on the beach. During my painting vacation we discussed the possibilities of this reference picture for making a painting with an 'unexpected addition' and decided I was to paint another composition.
A few days ago the Sketch A Day app had the prompt 'feather' and I immediately decided to use the reference picture my husband made.
That picture was used for this Conté drawing, showing only the sand, the feather and its shadow.
Maybe I will try other compositions with the feather, trying to find the best 'unexpected addition'.
The information about the materials I have used, the size and availability of this work and - if you are interested in my original artworks - my contact information can all be found in my Tumblr blog.
