I’ve been waiting for the time when I could post my scan of this drawing/painting. It’s a mix of a background watercolor wash, with several different types of drawing media, and a bit of some of my Pentel Micro Correct White-Out as the snow on the branches (which are water-soluble ink, blended with a water brush).
This guy was a real pleasure to draw. He was given to my brother Gary Minish, as a LATE Christmas gift, which has now been received, so I’m safe to post the scan. He got the framed original. 😀
My inspiration was his photograph:
“Magpie and Moss”
