Sketching #171

CPP Response #171: Perch
CPP Response #171: Perch

I cannot get this bird woman out of my mind. I have drawn her before and I am sure she will appear again. I think she represents more of an escape than wanting to fly. Here she is perched on the top of the building and ready to fly.

I was inspired by the idea of perching on the edge of a chair, but I didn’t want to draw someone perched on the edge of a chair. This idea came to me when I was looking through my sketchbook for the budgie photo and came across the response to prompt #119. I drew another woman ready to fly instead of the budgie. I think I like the feathers in this response better.

Take a look at the original prompt and draw, paint or sing something in response to it. I would love to see what you create.
