Description I got pissed at the world, so I drew feathers for like an hour. LIKE an hour. Like, totally like an hour. :iconthereisnoiconforhowstupidIamplz: Cuz I was a PonyGirl when I was little, so I have a box with over 500 feathers in it. It's like a bird exploded.

I bet you can guess what all of those are from.

This lovely stuff is brought to you discourtesy of pen and colored pencil.

I can guess 5 of them. The long black one could be a raven's.The little blue one in the corner that of a blue jay, the tiny yellow one a goldfinch and large striped one could be that os a great horned owl and I have already founded the short black with white dots in my garden.

The black one's a crow, actually, but crow and raven are so close that I'd say you got it. XD The blue one is indeed a blue jay; the yellow's a chicken, actually (it's a bit oranger in real life. My camera sucks XD). The big stripey one is a redtail hawk feather - I made it a bit too fluffy. XD The black and white spotted one is a sapsucker feather.

Now, I may be odd, but I'm not odd enough to upend a vase of feathers and take a photo of them sitting on a white sheet of paper. XD

I always have wanted to pop a pillow off the top of a building on a windy day, though.

But anyways, thank you! ^^

RustyBlou In reply to GreyCorbie [2011-01-16 19:04:55 +0000 UTC]

And then post said photo on an art website. Thank goodness you're not that odd.

Me too! It would be so much fun.

No problem.

My mom didn't let me collect feathers when I was little, but I remember picking up some seagull and magpie feathers anyway.

GreyCorbie In reply to Windymon [2011-01-02 02:45:33 +0000 UTC]

HAHA my mom encouraged me to pick them up! Never mind the dirt, bird lice, whatever. The funny thing is, she was a nurse, too.

Windymon In reply to GreyCorbie [2011-01-02 09:36:06 +0000 UTC]

My mom wasn't quite a nurse, but she did work at a hospital for years. I guess it made her flip over and become too careful unlike your mom.

(Your parents do seem to balance that fine line between good crazy and holy-crap-what crazy in a nice way.)

GreyCorbie In reply to Windymon [2011-01-02 18:05:43 +0000 UTC]

Mine's overcareful about some stuff, but not other stuff.

Nooo, when my dad is angry, he's holy-crap-what crazy. XD Seriously.

I don't think so. When you draw dark hair, that's just like what I do with a black pen.

What media do you use, again? I thought you used pens of some sort.

GreyCorbie In reply to phoenix4ever [2011-01-01 21:41:14 +0000 UTC]

Right, markers. XD I call those pens a lot, since they're really just felt-tipped pens. That's too bad that you're out of them.
