Drawing - Scratchboard And Acrylic
Description
Among many wild animals Dawn's family rescued and nursed to health so they could return to the wild, One that stands out in Dawn's memory was an injured, blind porcupine that her brother rescued when Dawn was 9. She learned from this porcupine how emotional, affectionate and expressive these little-understood wild animals are. Dawn, a published writer, is working on a series of children's books about her experiences with wild animals as a kid, and this is the cover illustration for "The Blind Porcupine" which is near completion.

I love the look here - the scratch board work is perfect for this prickly creature - who somehow manages to look quite cuddly at the same time. Love the way the branches surround and frame him, too.
