EDM #125 - Bird (8th Fact)
Fact #8: Geese freak me out!
I once watched one of these white jobbers attack my aunty and give her a humungous bruise on her butt. I watched this particular goose from the comfort of my driver's seat and didn't dare get out. No tasty morsel for this guy. I was just hoping he'd go away. LOL.
Ok, those are my 8 random facts.

Hey Joan, Cool goose! I had one chase me once with its beak wide open and hissing at me, so I know what you mean about them being a little freaky.
I'm tagged, I'm tagged! Okay, so I am going to try to get to at least one fact very soon. I loved your idea of posting drawings to accompany each fact. I may do that...or maybe I will post some photos. How fun!!
Hey, I am going to go email you now...TTYL! -kate
This is AMAZING Jo. Amazing.
i love the goose! just wonderful!i admire the manner of crosshatching. it is really beautiful.
as far as real geese are considered - they're not the nicest things are they? so territorial. amazing something so relatively small can be so threatening but they are!
What a beautiful job you've done here with that crosshatching! You might not like geese but you certainly drew this one very well!!!
I should have asked you to do more random facts, Joan, I'm so disappointed that you're done! Loved them all and this goose is amazing ... had to get up close and examine the great hatching work!
Thanks for the comments everyone!
This is really great. I also like the crosshatching/shading, and I really like the interesting use of color.
Thanks Lynn. I had just bought the pen the same day I drew this. It was a very nice change and added a totally different feel to the drawing. Thanks!
What a great goose - and the color choice really sets the mood. Having been chased by a goose or two myself I have to agree with you - these things are facinating to watch, but only from the saftey of the car!
Hiya Joan...thanks for the tag. :) I'll post my 8 facts now.
Love the green and I really admire your technique. That background is so well done. I'm just getting back into pen & ink and I'm studying everyone's pieces gathering knowledge.
This is what I call green:)
Your hatching technigue is great! Wonderful goose!
