General Artwork
"Golden Mantled Ground Squirrel"
This drawing was produced for the 2009 Small Wonders exhibition held by Sycamore Fine Arts in Goshen, Indiana.
In 2008 I ran a 5-day Drawing Workshop in West Yellowstone and during my stay I took many photographs in Yellowstone Park. This particular Ground Squirrel was the first animal I photographed...and it almost ran up my trouser leg!
The drawing, measuring just 3" × 2", took 5 hours to complete. There are no close-up views because the original drawing was sold at the exhibition and, regrettably, I only have a low resolution copy.
