Kingfisher on the board (or should that be Broad?) 6

Finished at last!!!  Took a lot longer than I thought, but overall very pleased with it, and it is now scanned and uploaded to the website in the limited edition prints. I need to catch up with some other admin, and then I think the next picture will be a graphite Greyhound... unless I change my mind of course 8-)

The Kingfisher is now about half finished.  I am still working in layers and refining as I go.  It is proving to be as time consuming as I thought it would, but I am thoroughly enjoying doing it, amongst my other work. It is really good to get off the Mac and onto the drawing board whenever possible 8-) I am looking forward to scanning it once completed as the colours are much brighter than shown here - overcast day in Norfolk and always like to photograph in daylight!
