I live in a fairly typical suburban neighborhood: cookie-cutter townhouses, curvy streets, small trees. When I was given the assignment to draw the birds around my house, I had no idea it would be such a challenge. For three days I sat on my porch. I could hear birds. Lots of birds! But I could see nary a one, save for the occasional millisecond glimpse of one as it flew by in the distance. So I ended up drawing the hostas and the little rabbit that’s taken up residence under our neighbor’s porch. All the same, I kind of like how this spread turned out.
