Dove- Lucy on the porch


Here's Lucy!!! sounds like the name of a show! This is the first drawing I have done of these birds without using the pen and ink. I'd love lots of feedback as to whether you prefer them with the pen and ink. Thanks!

  1. Your birds are amazing, I always feel like I can reach out and touch them, they feel so real. The feathers on thins dove... WOW!

    I think that this dove looks a bit more life like than the ones done with pen and ink, but I must say that personally I still prefer the ones with pen and ink. It's a style i really like.

  2. I like both styles equally. I guess it depends on the subject. Sometimes without the ink, a drawing can be too soft but you handle the values great so it works either way. It's a beautiful dove picture.
