In the Cattails
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: peebsmama

 For this week's sketch challenge. This bird image was buried deep in a drawer. So glad I went looking for something and came across it. I haven't used it in years. I tried to find a bird in my field guide to figure out what color I should make it, but no luck, so I colored it what I though suited the overall image. The image is colored in markers, the sky is chalked in blue. I inked my embossing folder before running the paper through for more depth of color.

Wonderful image and perfect for this sketch! I love how you cut out the cattails and leaves that extended outside the main image. Great CB background, and I like the two Artichoke strips too.
