Here is my entry for the March Virtual Sketch Date. The reference photo is here.
Joyfully exploring God's world through the artof watercolor, pen, and ink.
Wow! That's rather good!Did you use a separate paint for the wash, or did the pen marks bleed? Either way, it's very nice!

Thanks Bonny! I used a watersoluble Noodler's ink in a fountain pen and the marks bled.

your birds are cute, and thank you for your wishes on my blog. Yes, the surgery worked very well.

I like the sepia toned ink you used. And you did a great job on the tricky form of the bird feeder. Nicely done!
