This is the piece that I am currently working on. It is being done on Ampersand's whiteboard, 14x18, using 8B and 3B pencils.
This is taking me a lot longer than I had planned, because there is so much detail on elephants. You may notice that the right and left sides are different in details, I'll fix that a bit later.
Your thoughts and comments are always welcome.

Thank you Travis. How is the weather down on the big island?

Thank you Charles. I've lived in Aaska for close to thirty years, I'm ready for shorter winters. I've been thinking about retiring to Wyoming. I looked at your web site and the whaling ship that you are building, that is amazing. How much time do you have in this ship and how much do you sell them for?
