Mind The Birds – (Billy) Blue Tit

Posted on July 25, 2016October 3, 2023 By Priptona No Comments on Mind The Birds – (Billy) Blue Tit

Update: Today, Billy was sent out as a gift to Jim. As lovely as it has been sending him prints, it is wonderful to be able to send him something tangible and drawn with my own hand. I wanted him to have Billy, because without his encouragement, I would never have felt…confident or able to try. He really *did* start to make me believe in myself (and oh how I WISH I had put that in the letter I enclosed with it!)

ORIGINAL POST:

Stuffed up his eye right at the end. Was trying for extra definition and “pop” but went WAY over the boundary and oversized the eye. Legs are much better, but colour is wrong. Needed to be a a greyer colour. Need to get more shades. But, man…I can draw birds! Squeee! And he looks *MUCH* better than my first blue tit :-))
