Little Bird On Branch Watercolor Painting


 Hello friends!  It has been a while since I've been posting here.  It's a long story, but I will sum it up with one word..... LIFE.

But, I am back, and I've been making art.  Watercolor, pastels, pen and ink, line and wash, colored pencil, and drawing/sketching, along with Zentangle.  

This is my latest watercolor.  I created it in a paint-along/tutorial by Kathy with Sunset Peonies.  Here is a link to Kathy's blog/tutorial https://sunsetpeonies.com/spring-bird-on-pink-blossom-branch-watercolor-paint-along-tutorial-demo/

I found Kathy's style very relaxing, and her instructions were clear and very well conveyed.  She is an amazing teacher, and extremely talented artist.  I plant to take more of her tutorials.

I used Daniel Smith watercolors, on a Canson XL watercolor pad for my journal.

I will be painting more birds for a while, trying to build my technique.  Practice is the key, so the more birds I paint, the better I should get.

I will be posting here again, so if you are still with me, I hope you will come back. I will post some of the other work I have been creating.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Blessings,
