This request was for something different. The California Pelican Bay State prison is not far from where I live. So, I know a number of the people that work there. One of the guards asked me about helping creating an image for them to be used on a commemorative coin that they wanted to create—something they could use to award personnel for a job well done.
(Considering my proximity to the prison, I am hoping that includes keeping the residents within their facilities.)
This is the first version. They liked it, but made a few request for changes. Hopefully I can make the changes and get paid.
This is the Photoshopped colored version of the artwork. Stay tooned for an update.

Looks like a tough old bird. Hehe

I have family that work there! That's really a great image and I am sure they'll like it! Great idea you came up with! Blessings, Lisa
I think it's great.
If I ever had to go to prison I'd like to be guarded by such a formidable bird. Keep me in and everyone away from me. Not that I'd ever go to prison.
Good job on the fowl felon keeper.

Thank you for stopping by my blog and thank you for the compliment.
Your artwork is great. The pelican is impressive and looking very much in control and on top of things!
Reading this post made me laugh aloud! Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog. And it's a great picture!
That is so great! I wonder what the inmates at Pelican Bay would look like??
