Finally get this done. The drawing is based on a photo I took. When I was on my way home, I discovered a Japanese sparrowhawk settled up in a ficus tree, ready to feast on its prey, likely a Oriental magpie-robin. I quickly went home and grabbed my camera and returned to the scene. I was lucky, I took a great number of photos of this bird feasting. For the drawing, I decided to create a dramatic atmosphere by using lines in the sky which all point to the sparrowhawk. I also want the dark sky to contrast with the white wing and to highlight the feather pattern underneath the wing.
