Had another go at a Lesser Sand Plover today. This is a sketch with watercolour added, scanned into the computer and then finished off with the pen and tablet.

Think I'm gradually getting the hang of the pen and tablet and enjoy the freedom it gives, as it's well nigh impossible to 'spoil' a picture, and I can tinker away to my heart's content without fear of 'overcooking' it.
Of course I realize the purists will mutter 'But is it art?' , but I don't mind - it's fun!
That plover looks absolutely great- and a big thumbs up for the method. I've promised myself a big splooshy marshscape hand-coloured and then scanned in to be finished, when the Nod project is done (could be this weekend).
