I started this in April after I had art class but didn't complete it until now.

(I used to be obsessed with Cockatoo's when I was little and a few years back).

Anyways here's my drawing of a Citron Cockatoo, I don't normally take pictures of the process but I liked the way it was going.





Not a big fan of the crest but it is what it is...now.

Beautifully done. I'm very impressed with your skill and your successful use of the graph.

Thank you! There was more on the picture but it involved the feet and I wasn't quite comfortable drawing them yet. But I also might have made up some of the feather parts ;) haha.
I really enjoy the graphs though, I'd like to eventually stop using them.

Very well done. I am a professional sculptor and have been for thirty five years. Are you pursuing a career in art? You have great talent.

It's a possibility, I honestly don't know what I'm going to pursue in yet. So far it's Marine Biology.

I'd love to see your sculptors! I love any type of sculptures, I've been pretty obsessed with them since I went to chinatown when I was 5ish. It takes a lot of talent, and I don't think I could do ever sculpt something.

Double awesome! You art people make me soooo jealous!

It's funny, art people make me so jealous too. I'm not the best and watching people do it with a breeze is so heartbreaking on your part !

RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
Beautifully done! The cockatoo crest is a defining aspect of these beautiful but relatively plain avians.

So sorry for not responding sooner!

I tried my best to make sure that the crest would be the best part...but it became way too technical for me :(

Nice! You are very talented! I especially love the eyes.
Very lovely drawing, you have captured the life in her eyes!
Thank you! I really liked how the eyes turned out. Thats the reason why I wanted to take pictures, incase it ended up looking like doodoo. The picture is really light compared to the actual thing--which makes the eyes look very intense.
