Vincent van Flying Fox

My model for this drawing was the flying fox at the front counter of the Australian Museum in College Street in Sydney.
He only has one ear. Hence his name -Vincent van Flying Fox, given by me.
He is drawn in charcoal and chalk on architectural film. He's about 1.5m x 1m.
And he reminds me of all the noisy little fruit bats that fly in and out of Darlinghurst of a summer's night. Some of them party in our palm trees.
This little guy's flying times are done, but he certainly has a good profile being on the front counter at the museum.
