Colour from the Season - Grey Squirrel Grey

Last week I was thinking that I might quite like to draw a Squirrel and then yesterday (serendipity), Pete phoned from the woodland to tell me that he'd found a dead one and would I like to draw it? My thoughts were - it's Friday night can I draw a Squirrel? No! Saturday can I draw a Squirrel?...well, perhaps, maybe it's just possible...so I said yes please.

Therefore today I sat him up, drew him and documented his peaceful Arcadian colours, here he is...






































it's my first mammal...




















(He's buried in the garden now, rest in peace little Squirrel...)
