A2Z Project - Letter R

Letter R for Rooster.
 

Watercolor, Tombow watercolor pens, 140 lb watercolor paper.

I'm disappointed in the outcome but I'm certainly not surprised. The photo of this bird is quite spectacular, in my opinion, and this painting is sorely lacking in comparison. But its another letter down and another one to go....

I had done a rooster drawing back in October. If you want to check it out, go here. As I was going through older posts I noticed some of the youtube video's did not display in the 'box' area. I clicked on one and it took me to youtube where I could view it. I don't know why some no longer show up and others do. ??

Miss P... sorry about the lack of a signature. I intended to do that before you got here but I spaced it out.

For consideration... you may want to cut off the extra blank space/paper around the painting. Or find a frame large enough to capture the bird portion and then do the cutting aterwards so it will fit the frame.

Finding frames that fit the picture was no problem, because they had matts, I just could not find a frame that I liked well enough... It got to fit the birds feel... I'll find one...

Hey did ya get the puter hooked up yet?
