Robin stage 3


I've worked a little bit more and filling in the feathers. I erase most of the plain pencil as I go, then add the colored pencil bit by bit. I've added some blacks and grays and orangey colors and he's starting to fill out. I add whites both under and on top of the other colors, though it's usually much easier to only add it under. Some colored pencils are slicker than others and the white just just doesn't want to adhere. More tomorrow!

Oh, I can tell that this is going to be one of my favorites. I love robins, and baby robins...well what could beat that!

I wondered about the pencil because I was always able to see it through all the colored pencil! Thanks!

This is coming along so well. It will be exciting to see the finished one.

He is emerging on the paper beautifully ! I look forward to Stage 4. I like the way that you are sharing the stages of each drawing with us and the commentary as well
