Flamboyant
The male peafowl, the peacock, has a most flamboyant plumage. He looks so regal as he struts his stuff and shakes his tail feathers.
Peafowl
Male peafowl are known for their piercing call and their extravagant plumage. The latter is especially prominent in the Asiatic species, who have an eye-spotted "tail" or "train" of covert feathers which they display as part of a courtship ritual. The term peacock is properly reserved for the male; the female is known as a peahen, and the immature offspring are sometimes called peachicks.
Tones are added using 3b and 5b pencils, shading is drawn into using an eraser to add emphasis to highlights. Lines are drawn across the background to suggest the tail feathers.
Lovely artwork! Would love to see in color!
That may be on the cards one day!
NICE

I did some thinking about our weather discussion and posted a little video I did last month. You can find it on my blog if you get a chance - "10 seconds of rain." I plan to do more related to weather. Thank you for the inspiration.
