I’m so rusty with drawing that I felt a little intimidated. 1. I feel like my proportions are off with the bird. It will be interesting to see if there are improvements over the course of time. Drawing from a photo is a bit easier for things like birds and animals since they are captured in the moment, and for seeing some detail. The challenge is the lighting made it a little difficult to see the detail of leaves on the tree, but I also just roughed those in. 2. I probably wouldn’t have noticed the nuanced coloring on the head and wings. 3. Making notations of those differences and nuances might trigger my memory when doing field sketches.
