Binky
/ June 9, 2012What’s wrong, it’s not a Wombie!
That’s a very nice parrot, Deb. The face looks quite realistic with that texture you’ve drawn in,
Deb
/ June 9, 2012Haha. I had to get something else out there to remind myself I could. 🙂
Thanks Binky! I’m glad you like it! I may do more to it in the future. The actual drawing is on the right side of the paper so there’s a lot of other room yet. I just signed it with and editor so it could be on this one for now. xo

/ June 9, 2012Yes, texture and has depth not flat appearing. Were these pencils you paint over with water ?
Deb
/ June 9, 2012Nope, just cheap dry Crayola pencils. What can I say…there was a sale on them at the local drugstore. 😉
Thanks Carl!

lesliepaints
/ June 11, 2012Colored pencils take such patience, Deb. Good for you. I like the blending of the reds and yellows around the bird’s head. It helps to draw my eye there.
Deb
/ June 12, 2012Yes it does. Takes way longer than a water color…the progress is slow. Thanks Leslie! xo
Carol King
/ June 11, 2012That is an amazing parrot. I love the bright colors.
Deb

Deb

Glad you like it, Lauren…thank you! xo
lscotthoughts
/ June 12, 2012I love their colors and you captured the beauty perfectly, Deb! The tropical background you mentioned would be beautiful, too, so looking forward to seeing that post! She loves all animals and has had them all! xo
Deb
/ June 12, 2012I don’t know when I’ll put in the background just yet, I’ve been so busy doing different things lately. But you’ll know when I post it.
Your sister sounds like a real sweetheart. People that love animals that much always are.
God bless you, Lauren…I love ya…xo

Red
/ June 13, 2012I think this is beautiful! Don’t you dare talk about others…you did a wonderful job. I love his eye!
{HUGZ}
Red.
Deb
/ June 14, 2012When did I do that?
I’m really glad you like this one, Red. It took me a bit of time compared to, say one of my graphite’s.
Funny that you and so many other like the eye, because it was where I didn’t fuss with it some much…I’m taking that “no fussing,” as a lesson learned.
Thanks Red!
Hugs xx
