  7. Hi there Sue!... Nice contrasts in this eagle piece... and as always great use of texture!

    Those Walter Foster Books really gave us all lots to practise with... with good pictorial pencil and ink sketches to support study!

    Nice piece!... Good Sketchin'...
    Warmest regards,
    Bruce
