Goose sketching



While at work I noticed a Canadian goose browsing around the grassy areas around the parking lot.  I didn't have my journal with me so I used the back side of my productivity sheet to try to capture his moving about.  People would walk right by him and he would look, but he figured they were not a risk to him and he kept eating.  One guy came to a sudden halt about 3 feet from him and wasn't sure if it was safe to walk by him.

 I feel I am getting  better at trying to sketch the basic shapes of my subject as quickly as I can.  When he came close to the window he stopped for a minute to eye me threw the window. He stood still enough for me to draw his eye and part of his beak. Drawn in ball point ink on copy paper.
