Whistle

Ine Spee

Whistle

A boy and a bird, both singing their song to each other. I have tried this, whistling back to the birds I hear, but they never respond. =P

Just a simple little thing I did, kind of a different style but I like it. Was fun to do. =D
Used sepia ink for the characters and border, then added a texture and the music notes in the background with Photoshop. Hope you like it! =3

    this is fantastic. really happy and carefree… make it a tshirt too.

  • Ine Spee replied

    Thank you!
    I had been thinking about making it into a Tshirt, but I’m unsure how to go about this (as in, should I remove the background and keep only the boy, bird and music? And if so, where should I place it? etc.) I might give it a try though. =)

    This is lovely.
    My husband talks to the wild birds in our back garden all the time – and believe it or not, they do answer him. It is quite magic to watch. He has a special whistle for them and them arrive, almost immediately.
    This image is like that – just MAGICK!!!

  • Ine Spee replied

    Wow, that’s amazing that your husband can talk to the birds like that. I’ve tried whistling back at them, but they never reply to me. Guess I must be doing something wrong. =P
    And thank you, glad you like the image. =)
