"Ambition."Illustration Friday's Challenge.(Pen and Ink with Sakura Micron.)
Sea Turtles always amazed me. The minute they are born they know that they have to get to the sea. Across several feet of sand they travel as fast as they can so they won't get eaten. Now that's ambitious!
Oooh, Ellen! I like this - you did that pointellism thingamajig! Very ambitious -- all those dots...! And I love sea turtles too.

ReplyDeletecheers,

I used to watch baby turtles hatch when young. Sometimes we helped ones that were too deep in the sand to dig out. Then we ran around shooing the gulls and hoping there weren't any waiting sharks. This is beautifully drawn!
ReplyDeleteSea turtles! I love sea turtles! And this is a most excellent piece of art!
ReplyDeleteThe love behind this illustration shines through. It is simple and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteit is really beautiful..and very nice idea.. I like it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't see this the first time. It's great. We vacationed in Sanibel, FL, for the first time this year. We were too early for the turtles, but I'd love to see the actual thing someday.
