Artist's Comments

Helmeted Friarbird feeding on Lady Finger Banana flower (or heart)

A current drawing that i've spent the last week on, since i got my new camera ive been taking lots of photos of the birds in my yard and this certain bird, the helmeted friarbird, turned out to be one of my favourite photos i've taken, so i decided to draw it. As for any locals that go to my school, may have seen me drawing this during classes working on it from time to time.

ive taken steps of this picture in progress for a tutorial on how i colour, i just need to get some advice on how to put it together and ill make everyone a hopefully helpful step by step tutorial, since uploading each progress individually wouldnt be very fun on people jumping from each step insted of having it all in the one picture.

hope this makes up for my absense of activity, i have a family of bush stone curlews i have taken pictures of including a baby, so i might draw that next.
