Original Graphite Pencil Drawing of Three Doves on Branches

This item is an original work of art executed in graphite pencil on light-colored paper, featuring a composition of three doves interacting with thin, leafy branches. The drawing demonstrates a monochromatic color palette, utilizing varying shades of grey to create depth and texture in the birds' feathers and the wood of the branches. The top dove is depicted in flight, holding a small twig in its beak, while the central dove flies with outstretched wings, and the third dove is perched quietly on a lower branch. The piece is signed in the upper right quadrant with the script name 'Brittany' and dated '2021'. The paper appears to be standard sketchbook or drawing paper with a slight texture. The overall condition is good, showing no prominent tears or creases, though the paper exhibits some slight rippling likely due to environmental humidity or the pressure of the drawing process. The graphite application is consistent, showing skilled use of blending to achieve soft gradients on the birds' bodies contrasted with sharp, darker lines for the leaf veins and branch outlines. This piece represents a contemporary amateur or hobbyist style of illustrative realism, showing significant attention to avian anatomy and movement.
