"With babies on their way, the old burrow would be far too small. Mr. Badger scouted far and wide until he found the perfect spot on a grassy hillock, just underneath a large tree. Digging a burrow large enough for two adults and wee ones was not an easy feat though, as Mr. Badger brushes his brow. Despite getting all covered in dirt and dust, his effort will be well worth it."
He is a North American badger. I changed his facial markings slightly as I thought the natural markings would make him too mean.
PanPastels and Prismacolors on acid free cardstock, 7.5x10". Prints available upon request.
The natural world is my main inspiration. Through close observation I seek to understand the world better. Layers, emotion and concepts hold great meaning for me and I strive to include them as much as possible. I primarily use pencil crayons and chalk pastels, but thoroughly enjoyed my Painting 101 class and plan on using acrylics more. Some day I hope to be able to attend ACAD full-time. My favourite artists include Fred Remington, Delacroix, Ralph Steadman, El Greco and Tom Thomson. I currently reside in Alberta with my husband.
I attend the Alberta College of Art & Design on a continuing education basis. In about three years time I will complete all ten classes required for first year studies. After that, I hope to be able to attend full or part time.
