Cowbird in the rain

This a charcoal drawing , aprox. 14"x20", Done from an original photo i took of a cowbird at my feeders on a rainy day. It was the wet feathers that intriged me. Some do not feel these birds worthy of being a subject in an art work, HUH. Won't those folks be scraching their heads when i do the starling peice i have in mind. This is done on gray/tweed paper that really lent its self to conveying a gray rainy day.

WOW!!! Now THAT is art! How beautiful! Excellent rendering of one of my favourite subjects: BIRDS

Artist Reply: Thanks Ana, birds held no real fascination for me until i was juried into an local audabon society art show and felt I needed to show a few works of birds. Now i am hooked.
