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.


...correction
I like it. Of course I would have liked an Oreo too but this is nice. You're very talented
ReplyDeleteAn oreo blizzard!
DeleteHello Anni, your Oriole sketch is beautiful. Well done. Wishing you a happy day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Eileen!
DeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteYep, I can only read so long, or I doze off. I bet you could find something!
DeleteYou 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. :-)
ReplyDeleteAt first, it wasn't noticed by me either. Thanks again, DJ
DeleteYour sketching talent is awesome! Now can you colorize one?
ReplyDeleteNo, 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)
DeleteWow, not only a talented photographer but a talented artist also. I wouldn't have noticed the hump either.
ReplyDeleteI didn't notice it either 'til I took a photo to post it here. Thanks Patti.
Deletegood job! Very impressive!
ReplyDeleteIt is just lovely, and so lifelike. I always like seeing your artwork!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Ginny.
DeleteI always love your drawings. If only I could use my hands for something like that when they are idle. :)
ReplyDeleteJust grab a pencil & draw what you see in your head. Thanks Mari.
DeleteGreat talent.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ruth.
DeleteOh I love this, Anni! You can draw pictures as well as take them. Wonderful!! Love, Andrea xoxo
