Bighorn update

I meant to post the final quite a while ago, darn.  I've been super busy with too many things, but here is the finished big horn ram study:

Pencil piece in progress-Bighorn Ram

Currently working on a pencil of a bighorn ram, called "Posturing." He is posing to show how big and tough he is.

This is just a beginning, but I think it is working, so far. It's on Fabriano hot press w/c paper, 9 x 12, and will probably mat to 8 x 10 or so.

For me, pencil work is very intense, but I love to do it, total control, lol. Any comments welcome, and thank you.

Bison Head Study

This is a 9 x 12 study of a bison bull. I'm working up the last of the textured canvas supports. I always seem to fight the texture, but this was a fun piece and it's also gone to a new home. Nice to have them go out so quickly!

Thanks for looking, and I would like to hear any remarks on this one.
