Now I am on a bird theme. Actually I did this before my pheasant (below). I did it on my weekend tangent. For someone who doesn’t like her hand writing I used it a lot in this one LOL!

I used my own writing for shading and wing texture. Lucky I have such good eye sight cos I am sure it is a size 4 font I wrote with! My sight has deteriorated in the past 2 years but when I had it tested it was ‘better than 20/20’.  I must have been bionic to start with!

The hands are pretty gnarled looking and not quite how I want them to look. Practice practice……. I think the dove was probably glad to escape from them.

Yes…….. the purple theme keeps coming out doesn’t it?
