Daily Practice 01 29 2014 Birds

I'm not feeling well tonight so I decided to sketch birds again for my daily practice, because birds are easy and fun and don't require much thought, unlike human figures which are so demanding. Ten 30-second gesture drawings, four 1-minute quick sketches, two 5-minute sketches and one 10-minute detailed sketch (the swan, which really didn't need ten minutes since it's all white and pretty simple).
