From on site sketch made on the 29th february 2008, afternoon windy but bright, sketch took just over an hour between 13.30 and 14.40.

the painting took several days, acrylic on canvas, 24 x 36 inches.

Charlie Brown was dozing in the sun light, a chunck of meat was attracting the crows but weary of the big brown stone they just circled or watched from timber poles.
