Description I know it has been a while since i submited anything. This took me SO much longer than I thought it would. I have been really working at painting different things and stretching my artistic abilities. I had a lot of fun painting this but I have to tell you all it really tried my patience. Meanwhile I hope you enjoy this all comments and criticisms would be appreciated for me to grow


I found this lovely digital painting by `ursulav [link] Go and check out her gallery she is awesome.

Watercolour on Arches 300lb CP

I already know Ursular's work and recongised these three birds as soon as I saw it. I take it you based your work on hers. It is lovely.

They certainly are! I have 4 parrots of my own so that'll show you how much I like them.

I see by your signature that you are a christian. Me too! I'm currently working on a large drawing of Jesus. 20x30 inches. Anyway, it is nice to see fellow believers here.

judylee In reply to Aprilart [2006-09-26 22:33:38 +0000 UTC]

I looked at your website you are an amazing artist April! The drawing of Jesus is absolutely amazing, I love His face, and seeing him in the more modern dress reminds me He is still here with us everyminute! Have you uploaded it on dA yet? I have not been on much lately, way too busy, I must it when you do

Aprilart In reply to judylee [2006-09-29 00:09:07 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much, Judy! The modern clothing is supposed to remind you just as you say - that He is still here with us, every minute of every day. Everything in that piece is symbolic with many reasons. It's definitely inspired by Him, and I give Him all the glory for it.

I do have the WIPs posted here on DA. It isn't finished yet. I'm hoping to have it done by January....Don't know though. I've been working on it since March, so it is slow work. I will be posting the finished piece here.

This one is pretty. I think that your darks need to be even darker for more impact. Illustratively it is great.

Nice work

I've never even thought about doing feathers in water colour.....eeK!

Good luck with the portrait, I'll help if I can

judylee In reply to Jumprabbit [2006-05-09 22:45:10 +0000 UTC]

Thanks I will probably be asking about what you use for flesh colours, and is it the same as watercolour? I have to do a rose painting first though for a show on memorial day, but after that i hope i will dive in....

Jumprabbit In reply to judylee [2006-05-09 23:47:19 +0000 UTC]

I'm thinking watercolour might be different from the way I do it, since I contantly mix white back into colours, and as I understand it you can't really do that.. so yeasssh.. I'd seriously think about doing a monocrome sketch first, as getting the right tones is really the key to good portrait in my opinion
