Hi everyone, here is something totally different for a one off watercolour challenge. It's an opportunity to loosen up, grab a large brush and try some loose watercolour birds. They are a great subject to really embrace the energy you can create in a few sweeping brush strokes.
You will need:
cold pressed watercolour paper (mine is 9x6 inches but this would be a great thing to fill a few sketchbook pages.)
Brushes I used: Pointed round size 8,2
Colours I used for part 3: Moonglow, Burnt Sienna, Raw Sienna but you can go for any combo of colours!
