Artist's Comments
I made this for the beautiful scrap paper project (I'm number 103). I really like how the bird came out, I used one of my favorite paper scraps for it.
I added some shading and a few little leaves to the branch. I want to keep the image as simple as possible to give max. impact to the bird, and I 'm very happy with the way it is now. Oh, and apologies on behalf of my poopy scanner, this looks so much better in person. _______ 21 cm x 13 cm Pencil, lined paper, gouache, colour pencils and markers on sketchbook paper. Comments Adorable!
 -- The essence of the vessel is the void therein.  oooh. niceplay on textures
-- The horrors of a man cognizant of despair's ever-tightening volutions, circling the dark pupil of each watchful eye. Hast du ein bisschen Zeit? Dann bitte - Prints Prints! [link] Prints Prints!  Beautiful work. I agree that it's lacking something... maybe just some clouds behind the bird or something like that would make it look more 'finished'? It's adorable already, though!

  I love the colors and form you captured. Your style really shines through with this, and it's perfect. I also love the concept of this.
The only thing I can think of to make it a little more interesting is to add a light pattern to the background.. nothing too distracting or dark, because it would really take away from the fantasticness of the bird and the star. Awesome work.  ooh, this is so lovely!
 --    I don't believe it. I giggled like a little girl twice
. First over this lovely pictures that made me a giddy inside. The things you can do with scraps of paper. Yay!and second because you said poopy scanner. I know! It's amiracle i don't have a crayon stuck up my nose   Ah, so simple and perfect. I love the color scheme!
 so so perfect.
