Watercolor - Day 10

This was the most intimidating task so far! In my mind I kept repeating all the things I have always thought about myself... you are not artistic... you can not possibly paint freehand!

And so I tried... 

Here is my first take on Jennifer Rzasa's hummingbird with Distress inks mixed with Perfect Pearls:


And I am so happy that I will try again! OK I could be critical.. the wings are not quite right... but hey... it's a first try at freehand with Jennifer's hummingbird as my guide. The shine is awesome, not so easily seen in the photo though. I need to try some of my other favorite birds... cats... flowers?

Amazing! I was completely intimidated at the idea of drawing a bird in flight, so I didn't! Your hummingbird is brilliant! Well done!

Awesome!! I was too intimidated, too, to try this. I was wondering if Perfect Pearls would work--nice to know they do.
