Birdy!

Posted on June 12, 2016October 3, 2023 By Priptona 5 Comments on Birdy!

Yes…it’s a Simple Minds (Jim Kerr) blog…yada yada! But, I want to get better at this art malarkey, so I *had* to share this. 

I drew this! I bloody well drew it from scratch…and it is f***ing AWESOME for a first attempt! Even if I do say so myself.

I know I need sssoooo much work. But for a first attempt of a bird…since…well…since the last time I did art in primary school (I knew I sucked then. I could never draw!) – to THIS!!!

WOW!

        You’re welcome. I started drawing a year ago, and I can’t believe the progress it’s possible to make. My first birds looked nothing like yours, so you’re way ahead of me.

          Thank you! You are much too kind. I was looking at your blog and your art is wonderful. If that is how you have progressed in one year, you have given me the belief in myself to try 🙂

            Thanks! I celebrated my first “anniversary” of drawing on June 9. That was the day I began. It’s been an incredible journey, and I’ve learned so much. I can’t wait to see where the next year leads me.
