Advanced Art- Alphabird

After reading the last post on typefaces you will be ready to move on to the assignment.  Choose 3 different letterforms from three different fonts.  No L's, I's or O's.  Then choose 3 different birds and get photo references of each.  Begin thumbnail sketches on ways to create the letterforms you chose using the three birds.  Each of the birds should be approximately 10 inches tall and you may use any mixed media you choose.  You will need at least two so colored pencil and watercolor would be an example.
Focus on these objectives:
Beginning your drawing with basic shapes using the letterforms as a "skeleton"
Focus on texture and create at least 3 different distict textures with each of the birds.
Make sure that the letterforms are readable in the amalgam form that you create.
