Description
Two more mini feathers, this time featuring a timber wolf in the woods and an arctic fox. I’m experimenting with adding backgrounds this time. Both are painted on reeves’ pheasant underwing feathers with added chinchilla / cream cock hackles on the backs, ending in 2 wooden pukalets. Both are around 5cm in length (not including the hackle feather) and sealed with a clear acrylic coating.(Artwork © Leona Preston 2006)

Nooooo! On the contrary, I think your artwork does show your soul. It's full of colour, and that is your expression. You shouldn't look down at what you do like that yannow.

Good for you!
Btw, Thank you, I think it's just that everyone has their own comfort zone. I prefer working in small scale because I'm comfortable with that, and you like large scale for the same reason. It's just discovering what you like most. Either way is neat says I!

Wow! That's such a unique idea! Or, at least to me it is. I've never seen anyone paint on a feather before.

Wow, These feathers are great. It must be very hard to draw on them without damaging them.

I’m always amazed at your traditional painting skills and how detailed your artworks always get. The timber wolf is outstanding but I really like the arctic wolf because it looks like it’s smiling. They both are really cool.

These are really cool. How do they get displayed, once you've finished them?

Thank you! 
Well, they can literally be displayed in any way. They can be framed or sown onto bags/clothing/hats ( they're pretty well protected by their clear coating, so are flexible with that kind of wear) etc... any way really.
Personally, if I know I'm going to be holding on to them for a while, I like to prop them up on an antler (it has various holes drilled into it for displaying feathers of this size) that I have on my shelf. That's how I display them to people anyway.

Glad! Although the scan killed the colours, it's still kinda true to the real thing.
