So, as soon as a video goes sketch your painting, I usually want to just reach for a stamp but, this time I actually was like OK you can do this. ( so I did ) but, I decided while I was adding birds to stop at 3. I do like the curve I gave the branch but, all the off shoots are distracting and I just kept adding more paint to this and the birds because, the thickness of the branch at the tip was too much from the get go. and the white gel pen on the eyes was a last minute addition and it also was off scale wise. ( such is life ) There are before mug shots leading up to this on the blog here. I did enjoy this exercise, thanks for this challenge Kia & tfl.

A beauty, Stacy. I noticed the branch right away and loved it. You did a great job with your painting.

Oh my, how beautiful! I love the birds but the branch is amazing, too. It requires me of something I've seen in the woods somewhere. Liking the coloured spatter.

I love your birds and branche, I'm sure there are real ones!! I love the shading on the birds and the white gel pen details in the eyes isn't disturbing!!

I think your birds look just great and so do the twigs - as soon as I saw your card, I wished I had added some twigs to my branch, too....
Good job on sketching instead of a stamp and SO smart not to add the front facing bird - He was a bugger . . .
