Thanks so much!<br />Sherry and Lisa, thank you both - I am using a rigger brush to draw with a bit and sometimes even painting most of the painting with it (these are only 9 x 11 pages in the journal)but then get out the bigger round to add and fill in larger blocks of color, etc. I am getting some good results, some okay, some not so good - but that's okay, I do feel it's a learning process all the way!RH Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497161758269292809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7104034804712021440.post-16206012994503497332013-01-16T07:37:45.929-05:002013-01-16T07:37:45.929-05:00I'd love to see a blue jay!

Look...I'd love to see a blue jay! How special.<br /><br />Looking back over these posts it's interesting to see how strong the drawing is and less hesitant. You have a nice balance of strong drawing and expressive brushwork in the feathers. You must be really pleased with the results.Lisa Le Quelenechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15939073566444931704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7104034804712021440.post-7752560006826158852013-01-16T06:10:31.104-05:002013-01-16T06:10:31.104-05:00Look at the beautiful flue feathers and markings! ...Look at the beautiful flue feathers and markings!
