Dead turtle, most recent drawing

This is my most recent drawing.
Atm i am working on a project that is about monitoring a dead turtle so i can draw the progress of decay.



pastels a5

i have just started, this cumberland slider was found dead at 30mar2011 by a friend and kindly donated to me

for the other drawings see

Hmmm, Slightly macabre...but strangely intriguing.
Nice work though, well done.

thank you ^_^
it's a bit macabre indeed, but it is my most recent one. wouldn't spam you with old work

I love the colours used, very organic colouration

I hope you have it in a sealed container. I have 2 turtles (formerly 3, before one was decapitated and partially cannibalized by another) and they smell enough living, let alone dead and decomposing.

Such a tragic subject to work with. But, then again, this is nicely done. The colors are natural and the details are spot on.

This is just wrong,I can understand photographic evidence,not artistic!
What i will say though is...This project is your chosen study,and i wish you well.On a personal note i find this a bit gruesome and certainly not edible
