Oreo....oops, Oriole!!


I finished this sketch this past holiday weekend. I started drawing it the few days there was no internet at home to keep my mind occupied. Or at least my idle hands. You know what they say about idle hands being the devil's workshop. I tried to stay out of trouble [jk]. Once I was able to get back online, I shoved this aside 'til I was caught up with internet stuff.  Its rump is sticking out too much, and in the interim of posting this photo taken, I have 'smoothed' it out and it flows into the tail feathers properly now.

  3. I would not have noticed the hump if you had not pointed it out and shown the repair. I see the difference now but would not have seen the need. this is the perfect thing for idle hands to do with out wi fi... I need something to do that is not reading or computer related.

  4. You are a very talented artist, Anni. And yes, now I see what you fixed, but it wouldn't have been noticeable to me if you hadn't pointed it out. :-)

    1. No, I like pencil. Don't do color often ...sketches of mine are black & white. When I paint, I use color. (See my drop down menu-for color art if mine)
