Last fall I started a project - an experiment with new materials. My subject the German beak - trumpeter pigeon. He is graceful, interesting and conducive to expressing energy. Picasso drew this same pigeon and called him a the peace dove.

I can't seem to stop the project. Here is another pigeon.  

Below are two of my drawings that inspired the project.
