Original Peacock Colored Pencil Drawing
This is an original hand-drawn illustration of a peacock, executed on a white, vertically oriented rectangular sheet of artist paper or cardstock. The piece appears to be created using colored pencils and possibly fine-liner ink for detail. The composition features a profile view of the bird, showcasing a vibrant blue neck and breast, transitioning into green and gold patterned wing feathers. The long tail feathers cascade down the left side in shades of green and teal. A notable feature is the intricate detailing of the 'eyes' on the tail feathers and the delicate crest atop the bird's head. The legs are rendered in a yellowish-gold tone. Regarding condition, the paper shows minor smudging of pencil lead in the white space surrounding the figure, which is common in hand-drawn graphite or colored pencil works. There are no visible tears or folds, though the edges are slightly uneven, suggesting a student-grade or hobbyist art pad. No artist signature or date is visible on the front of the piece. The style is representational and folk-art inspired, likely contemporary in age, exhibiting a dedicated focus on texture and pattern rather than realism. The craftsmanship shows a high level of patience in the repetitive patterning of the plumage.
