Sparrow on a Limb

[KreativeK]

Just for fun one using various brands of paint wet on dry on 12x9 Canson 140 lb cold press paper; used a #1 rigger held sideways for the most part. Splatters at the end when dry. A quickie demo for a class with imaginary sparrow.
C&C welcome.

Very nice. Good demo of what w.c. can do. Those casual wet washes..... thanks for the reminder... And that rule of thirds. And reminds me of sumi-e.

Gorgeous Kay!

CaliAnn took the words right out of my mouth. This is gorgeous work, Kay! Love it.

I'm betting your students have a blast.

 

[Bartc]

Gorgeous! Sort of a stylistic combo of sumi-e and western watercolor techniques. Very beautiful.

 

[KreativeK]

Thanks everyone!
Yes, the gals had fun and each piece turned out different.

 

[Artyczar]

One of my favorites of yours! I love every aspect of this.

 

[snoball]

Beautiful Kay. You have such a wonderful command of watercolor.

 

[Joy]

The tree bark texture is outstanding. I am really loving the painterly look.

 

[Jo Castillo]

This is so nice. Such descriptive strokes. Cute birdie. Must have been a fun class!

 

[KreativeK]

Thanks everyone! Sorry the background appears so yellowish, as it’s really white.

 

[classic]

An excellent work. I guess these effects are specific to the watercolor techniques.

 

[KreativeK]

Thank you, and yes they are.

 

[Scamall]

I love this! Even the yellowish background.

 

[KreativeK]

Scamall, thanks! You get the idea.

Beautiful! For me the tree is the hero(ine) of the painting.
