Added Olly’s eyes but had to take his beak away as I realised his beak was then too low. Easily fixed (mercifully). He’ll soon be with you!

Olly’s Progress
Olly has a beak – twit two hoo!!!
WIP – Olly & TLBT
Olly is coming along nicely….but the new canvas? Yeah…not so good. Nothing like as envisaged so far (as usual). I have to learn to take the rough with the smooth!
WIP – Olly Prepped
I’m starting two birds at once. One is a commissioned painting of an owl. I have changed my mind a few times on the actual owl I will do and I will now keep it a surprise – but here is the primed canvas that Olly the Owl will be painted on. PLEASE let me do him justice!
My other bird will be a blackbird that I am calling Beau. I’m yet to be fixed on which medium I will use for him. I may try him with watercolour first, so how he goes. I also have oils now and so far I have only painted with acrylic. I’ll probably try the watercolour first. If it all goes well, I can frame it and present it beautifully. Time will tell…
