Rutger: Inspired A Little By Pelicans...

This is another supporting birdish critter from the StarDucks' characters cosmos.

Pelicans are pretty cool birds, aren't they? I took those photos at the Pacific coast of Chile, two weeks ago.


Generally, I begin working with a particular colour concept in mind.
