Thank you so much , Terry!
AMAZING! 
Excellent use of values and the feathered effect around the bird to stand out from the background is incredible! Oh, and welcome! Jesus loves you!!!
Thank you so much!
(and He does indeed—even tho I bring absolutely nothing to the table!)
Great Job. Love it. Can’t wit to see what else you have to share
Thank you, Denise!
I’m currently working on some of the Skull studies, from the Portrait series. Not good, but I can see the progress, little by little.
Thanks again!
Yup - it’s all about practice. I even notice when I go awhile without using one of the media (say watercolors), that my skills get rusty. Hang in there because the journey is very rewarding.
