Artist's Comments

I made this to put on a Christmas card for my family. I know robins are more traditional, but long-tailed tits are very pretty and don't get enough attention.

I used this [link] as a reference (I would advise that you look at it because it's a very nice picture that I totally failed to do any justice to). I know that the branch it's sitting on is disgraceful, and I didn't even try to put the detail of the feathers in. This is because I am lazy. Any tips on quick and easy ways of drawing twigs and feathers would, of course, be appreciated.

Time: somewhere around 4 hours (I actually made an attempt at timing myself for once!)
Medium: Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0

My 2nd piece on Photoshop that I've managed to get myself to complete. I'll finish all those other bits and bobs some day...

I'm fully aware that if my opinions were cash a hundred of them still wouldn't buy anything. :)

This is very pretty. Even though you say you didn't put any details in, you can still tell what it is without having to look at the reference picture (which is quite lovely). A very vice painting.

"Nice" painting... I really need to check what I write, before I hit the send button.
