Here is a drawing of a sparrow that I've been working on...included a detail of the head and chest area.

When I first started scrolling down, I thought the first one was the reference photo!
Really nicely done! Thanks for showing the closeup - gives us even a better idea of your great skill.

Spectacular, I also though it was a reference photo at first, but of course, much more beautiful than a photo. I found the light green above the head a little distracting. Beautiful work.

Thanks Kim & Kathy for your compliments.  I did tone down the green surrounding the head in the final stages of the drawing about a month ago.  The drawing is finished but I haven't taken the time to photograph it as I've been busy trying the paint the house this year.

You might think of entering this painting in this month's creative spark contest in the pastel journal. It is for a painting with an unusual perspective. When I read that, I immediately thought of you painting. The perspective is one of the things I enjoy about this painting. I think you can win some pastels, but of course it would be cool to have a painting published!

Hi Fisher4. I like your sparrow very much. Very nice color and composition. Only the metal piece on back of the bird's neck is disturbing me. I feel I can hold the bird in my hands. Very nice. Is this pastel work? ---Suna.
