Proud _Black Swan

                                                                      watercolor, 9"x7"
A proud looking swan, I like these birds -they are so beautiful! I have loads of reference pictures as my husband loves to take their close ups...this is from one of his pictures.After three days of not painting, I felt compelled to paint something last evening.Another portrait is on my drawing board but that will take time- this is like a chocolate bar in between meals, quick burst of energy!
Also visited the library this morning and found some pastel painting books.Still unsure how to go about using my new  'mi-tientes 'pastel paper, I won't know until I decide about what am I going to paint.Soon,soon....

  4. Hello Arti:) I know what you mean! Painting something, no matter what. Just for the feeling:) Your goose is so lovely and beautiful painted. Love the blue water in the back. A beautiful contrast. The colors in the goose are a perfect mix. Love it!!
