Sparrow

Another marker sketch, this one I spent several days with in like five minute time increments. It actually was a much nicer sketch in two colors, I should have photoed it earlier. Early one Sunday morning she must have hit my window as I found her alive on the front porch in frigid temperatures, put her in a large box indoors hoping she would regain herself in the warmth, but she had passed when I got home from Sunday mass. Many sparrows in my repertoire of sketching past, she somewhat hurt more as I hoped to free her again.

Oh rediscovering the path again....hard to study her when she's alive moving around all over...sad that death came early but her beautiful soul is free and you honor her with this drawing...
