Oh, thanks. I wondered if you were using the straw tech. I have seen some very interesting effects with this. This worked well. I love that you seem to try so many things. Very creative!

Hi Deb - thanks for your kind words.  This is watercolours - a technique that Jasmmine Jan (a Northern Territory Australian artist) explained in Artist's Palette No 78. Basically you mask out the bird and then using a straw blow the background watercolours around.

Really a striking contrast with your mixed media. How in the world did you do this one?

This is beautiful! I love the colors and the use of white space.  Good work!

Thanks - quite pleased how this turned out - now on the look out for other ideas for this mixed technique of detail and abstract
