I’m thrilled to learn that “Heart of San Pedro” (Western Screech Owl) has been accepted in the Society of Animal Artists<\/span><\/a>‘ “Animal Impressions<\/em><\/a>” Exhibition at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum<\/span><\/a>. The show runs August 21 – November 7, 2021.<\/p>\n This drawing is an 8″ x 8″ scratchboard, with watercolor. I took the reference photo at the San Pedro River Preserve in Arizona a number of years ago, so it’s fitting that the drawing will debut in AZ.<\/p>\n I have a number of scans of this drawing in progress, but I still need to run a couple of them through Photoshop to clean up. Then I can create a short video of the stages. I also have video of real-time drawing on this piece. Once I get that edited, I’ll post it for subscribers on SubscribeStar<\/a>. I’m trying to get that platform off the ground, but haven’t had a chance to create new content for it.<\/p>\n This post is part of my new strategy to share announcements & updates here instead of on Facebook, so I’m making a little progress on the “pivoting” strategy I discussed in my last post.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m thrilled to learn that “Heart of San Pedro” (Western Screech Owl) has been accepted in the Society of Animal Artists‘ “Animal Impressions” Exhibition at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.
