Hi everybody!! I was wondering which Blue Bird drawing you liked best - I have a friend that has just had an operation and am going to frame and send one to her. I want to send the best one. Top Blue Bird or Bottom Blue Bird??

For me, it is the top one. I like the strong color on the bird’s chest. I prefer the strong contrast in values in the top one. I think my problem with the bottom one is that the eyes and beak give the bird a bit of an angry look. I am sure that could be fixed, should you decide to go with the bottom one. Nice job on both, by the way.  
Patricia.
