Happy Finch
Just a snippet of a 6x8 I did solely for me the other day. I'm trying to experiment with painting lifelike water, but still have some things to figure out. ;)
Watercolors, blue ink, and white gouache on watercolor paper
Beautiful work. I've never tried water, but it looks very tricky. (I think you could also use a deeper shadow on the palm of the hand, but it depends on the light.) That bird looks so happy! He's just perfect. Happy PPF!

It looks great to me. The bird is so sweet and happy and you have painted the hand marvellously well.
Beautiful work, so sweet!

Hehe, this little fellow looks so happy. Well done!
Such a cute little finch! I think you've done a really good job on the water, the white paint gives it a nice texture.
Sooo pretty! Happy PPF - Irma
a wonderful sweet drawing! I like your water, too.
