Description The piece i'm putting in the Western Idaho Fair this year (they have a pretty decent art contest) ...

my daughter with a baby robin that fell out of its nest in our front yard. (no worries guys, the parents took it right back!)

colored pencil!

it ended up getting second place and people's choice at the fair ^^

SHe is such a beauty, and those silky curls... You've done a great job capturing that childlike excitement with even the smallest things and it resonates deeply with the viewer. I featured it in my journal because it brings me such a deep feeling of joy and optimism:Ā On Top of a Flaming Eagle

At the barn my horse lives at, a couple of finches decided that one of the helmets inside our trailer would make a good nest- therefore we had four babies at home in our helmet for a couple of weeks. they were just adorable!

I was wondering if I could have permission to draw this for a final in my drawing class. My teacher said that we had to choose a famous artist but I showed him your artwork and he said it was really good and that I was allowed to use it if I asked you and you said yes.

Novawuff In reply to BubbleFaux [2011-04-28 20:40:36 +0000 UTC]

yeah, you bet thanks for asking.. and thanks for actually WANTING to i'd love to see how your final turns out...
would it help to see the photos i was working from?

BubbleFaux In reply to Novawuff [2011-04-30 20:37:57 +0000 UTC]

I can work from anything I can see. I'm supossed to render the artwork so the photos aren't needed. I printed off the picture. Now I just have to draw it on this 3 foot tall piece of paper he gave us. T.T Gah, how i hate finals. I could post the final on here, if you want to see it.

Pencil. I just finished the overall practice sketch. Hair and bird are hard!!

Novawuff In reply to BubbleFaux [2011-05-02 19:53:19 +0000 UTC]

hair was hardest for me...she's such a fine blonde, and the way the light was highlighting it... i added too many layers of color and it ended up turning to mud

BubbleFaux In reply to Novawuff [2011-05-04 19:59:14 +0000 UTC]

Started on the final for the exam today. So far, so good. Bird still evil, but the hair is coming along easier now because I practiced. It still evil too. Just finished making the dough for my homemade pizza too. YAY!
