Sandhill Cranes in Flight

3.5x5 watercolor on 140 lb Fluid block paper done over last weekend for an online event.  The sandhill cranes are back, not in large numbers, but can be seen overhead and around town.  The rainy skies add a fall/autumn touch.

Sandhill Cranes

6x6 watercolor and ink line wash with Micron 01 pen on Masters paper of a pair of sandhill cranes heading south.  Last week I traveled twice on the same road from Lamesa to Brownfield, TX and these birds were plentiful and powerful in their V-formations towards dusk.
