WDE April 21: Just before he flew...........
He got bored 'sitting' so this is just under an hour 
CP on a piece of cream pastel paper, A4 size. ... 'in the spirit of ....'
The frame is a digi one.
If I have time, I'll add more layers but I'm trying to get a painting done - so this is using 'drying time' 
Thanks for the lovely ref Susan - he deserves a better interpretation!

Great attention to just enough detail, Maureen!! It's fine as is or put out some fruit or a cracker so he'll come back for another sitting! 
I also like the digi frame!!
