These 2 birds seem a little different for you – not so stylised? I really like them
BLYTHART replied
I’m unpredictable :)

I absolutely LOVE the textures you’re using in the background Dave.

Well worth waiting for.
John R.P. Nyaid
Fabulous work! And it’s always nice to see the way the cross-hatchings technique’s being utilised in a medium other than inks :)
BLYTHART replied
Thank you very much. I love doing hatching.
catherine walker
This is very sensitive and beautiful bird
BLYTHART replied
As we don’t have this bird in England to my knowledge, I had to use a photograph for reference, so surely this classes it as a “copy” by your standards? I suppose the only truly original art is that created in a locked room with no photos or objects to copy.
osburatti
very nice . Looking at it you get the sensation that it’s about to take flight…great work
tomrhody

amazing .. not just a pretty bird but also a very engaging air around it :)
Alexandra Felgate
Very beautiful birds!! I like the subtlety to them, just another facet of your wonderful style!!!
F.A. Moore
I think this is my favorite of your birds so far (although I love them ALL). Your pencil lines overtop of the watercolor are just fabulous. Thanks for submitting it to Solo Exhibition, too, Dave. I appreciate that.
BLYTHART replied
Many thanks.
Torfinn Johann...
Lovely work Dave!

Many thanks.
DreaM
brilliant indeed! i love your trace!
BLYTHART replied
Thanks. I assume “trace” means “draw.”
DreaM
LOL! yes, i guess you do not trace anything. i mistranslated my language, i really meant draw, or pencil lines if that’s correct. anyway, i admire your work, that’s what i really tried to say.
BLYTHART replied
Ha-ha – that’s fine :)
Colin Cartwright
An interesting combination of the two media. I like this distinctive style, Dave.
And very good realistic details on the bird. Superb colours, too.
BLYTHART replied
Thanks. By the way, I’ve been checking and do you realise I have sent you 33 Bubblemails and you didn’t respond to a single one, although you did reply to the first two or three before those.
Colin Cartwright
My time is limited on the computer, due to ill health.
BLYTHART replied
That’s okay – I understand now. Hope your health improves Colin.
linmarie
FABULOUS PIECE OF ART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Colin Cartwright
I’m afraid chronic fatigue and pain, unstable diabetes, only get worse with each year.
Thanks for the best wishes though….and there’s always art to distract me….
BLYTHART replied
Forgive me for misunderstanding your situation. You are one of my favourite Redbubble artists my friend. I wonder if we’ll ever meet, as we live half an hour apart from each other.
