Next year I’ll be hosting art retreats in Africa so hoping to see these birds for real!I added pops of blue/grey to the body of the right bird to cool the piece down and add contrastAt this stage, I was tempted to leave the body as it was, but decided to add more detail at the next stage.I generally always paint onto dry paper and then let the colours bleed into each other, encouraging them with extra waterI decided to build this piece up a section at a time as it was fairly large at A2
@raysofsunshine thank you! Yeah I had fun with the name! Hope you manage to get back to the courses one day. Life is so busy sometimes so I completely get it!
@sarah_stokes Thanks Sarah, Local portrait painting classes for an upcoming event, plus health challenges going on, however I will get there and lovely work thanks. Two grandchildren to help with when we can too! lol Fun as well as hard work!
@labrat thank you! I’m carrying out some fund raisers at Kariega Reserve, South Africa in conjunction with the Kariega Foundation next May… and then an art retreat in Morocco next September. What a beautiful part of the world you live in!
