Dove Illustration Giveaway

I’m giving away this original drawing of a white-winged dove (Zenaida asiatica). The drawing’s dimensions are 7 x 6 inches (about 18 x 15 cm), done in burnished and distressed colored pencil on vellum-finish toned paper. It is not matted, mounted, or framed.

The giveaway will be by random drawing. To enter, leave a reply to this post saying “Pick me!” I’ll close the drawing pool at 50 entries or noon Saturday (MST), whichever comes first. I’m also extending this contest to my Instagram followers, so no duplicate entries please. U.S. entries only. And family are ineligible. If there is something you want me to draw just ask.

The winner will need to disclose a domestic ship-to address, which will of course be kept confidential; notification will by via direct message.  

UPDATE: This giveaway is closed. I’m pleased to announce that instagram follower @chiefcake won the contest. Congratulations!

Pratique—Day 4.

Progress: tail color blocking and underglaze. Tomorrow I’ll begin several days of fine line work to define feathers, so there won’t be updates until most of that effort is done. I won’t work on the head and eye until last, to keep those features crisp and clean.
