An Eagle for the 4th of July!

 Happy 4th of July - Independence Day!

Here’s one to color!




We have a rainy day here today. Perfect for a day that was basically cancelled months ago because of the times we are still going through, even though somewhat liberated right now.

And the bw version I hope!

Bird by the shoreline, crayon drawing, 6/21/21


 I’m lightly considering ways to work regularly on a long term project yet complete small steps regularly. One idea, like patchwork quilts, is to complete small panels that can then be put together.

There are so many possibilities for this. Last night I did a crayon drawing of a bird. Two pieces of light paper pasted together or a piece of card stock. Today I pasted a paper stick to the back of it so I could manipulate it in another context. That makes a good prop. The image could stand for this photo.
