Thanks Jane ... birds are so enjoyable to draw and paint. I've decided to focus more on 'nature' in the landscape this year so there will inevitably be more birds!!
Thanks Sheila. I painted the background and the edges of the wings simultaneously, wet-in-wet so that the pigments would bleed - to give the effect of movement. The yellow pushed the indigo away :)

Love the technique - that deep darkness behind him and how you have smudged it in with his wings. It is truly beautiful.

I love the way watercolour helps you paint!
