Ow's Ya Pecker, Woody?
Just a polite enquiry (following your shared birthdays!!!!).
And - here's a pecker, Woody.
One of 12 illustrations I am currently enthralled by:smoke: (not all birds - and definitely not all drawn from life!)
Beautiful little waterscape Peter - liquid loveliness!

Fantastic composition Peter and a masterly executed Woodpecker Tim!
I'm the one now who has to post something new, and in this case an Illustration
presented here in three stages until it has been completed.

C'est pas ma faute, je suis anglais.
Very instructive seeing the progression, it seems you start off the same way as I do when attempting this sort of thing, except I usually balls it up before getting anywhere near to completion. Illustration of the highest quality, keeping the life and character of the subject beautifully.

Great work everyone. I am really hoping to do something for myself this next week and I am hoping to figure out how to get it all on digital to share with you all.
Tim, I'm not even going to go near your 'pecker....it's just too good!!!!

Ooh it's all gone a bit Carry On!!
Can't keep up really - lots of lovely stuff again
Paschalis - larks are spot on, Peter - I think everyone's used all the available adjectives for your mini-marvels!
Anyway inspired by Peters small wonders here's something that was again a competition entry some years ago - actual size is 6cmx6cm (2.5cm is an inch in old money)
Lack of posting was camera issues - err, I had to dry it out and hope all it's digital bits came back to life - slight balance difficulty on slippy rocks trying to photograph purple sandpipers. I decided to sacrifice my elbow to save the camera but it didn't quite work as it ended up partly in a rock pool!
Cheers,
Andrew
