This is my 2011 art project: I'm going to attempt to do one drawing every day of the year. The drawings can be any medium, any size, any level of care and completion. I'm looking forward to seeing how my work evolves and improves, and whether this practice helps me to be more organized and "together" in the rest of my life pursuits.

Mama Eagle

I did this sketch from the live feed on my computer from the "Eagle Cam", a web cam that has been placed beside an eagle nest in Decorah, Iowa. I heard about it on NPR today, and found the feed here. It is streaming live video of a mother eagle on her nest. It's night now, and I've watched her fall asleep. She has two babies that have hatched already, and one unhatched egg under her. That bunch of black scribbles in the lower left of the drawing is a dead crow in the nest. I sketched one of the babies just in front of her chest.
