I’m finally done with the little kingfisher. Many hours later,lol. Prismacolor pencils on Bristol smooth paper.

this is beautiful! There’s too many choices, but I think you’ve helped me decide on doing the 3 birds next.

Thanks Teresa! I learned a lot on this one. I didn’t do a carbon copy of Matt’s but I think that’s good. I’ll be starting on bird number 2 soon. I’m looking forward to seeing what polychromos pencils are like.  
Please post a picture of your kingfisher when you are done!

You are not the first one to forget to upload the picture. I have done it many times.

Beautiful job on the kingfish. They are such lovely birds to render, and this course was a great one!
