A new Hummingbird

My first new piece for nearly two years! It is good to be drawing again.

Costa’s Hummingbird

Costa’s Hummingbird. This has turned into my favorite piece so far. I love these little birds. l use Faber Castell Polychromos and Caran D’ache Luminance and Pablo’s and Holbeins for all of my pieces. And here l used a few Schpirerrfarben purples too.

Blue Tit

Blue Tit. The second in my series of British Birds. I really want to draw my garden favorites.

Lilac Breasted Roller

Lilac Breasted Roller. I drew this little bird not long after l began working with colored pencils, l felt that l wanted to draw it again and do it more justice. I have sat this little bird on a branch of Kross Berry bush.
The pencils l use for this piece are Faber Castell Polychromos and Caran D’ache Luminance and Pablo’s and Holbeins and l also used a favorite blue Schpirerfarben.

Black Throated Mango Hummingbird

Yes, another hummingbird! No apologies! I love them, there will be more!
​You can watch the video of me drawing the tail feathers for this pretty bird here:

White’s Frog

l love drawing frogs but don’t seem to draw them nearly as often as l would like to. This is a White’s Frog and l had a lot of fun creating all the different textures for this piece. You can see how l created the texture on the belly in the video below.

Kingfisher 2

Common Kingfisher 2. My second Kingfisher which l was so excited to draw as l have been wanting to draw one with a fish in its mouth. I love birds in action and the beautiful reference photo for this was so dynamic!

Betta Fish Fantasy

Fantasy Betta Fish. There is a story behind this one! I drew it a while ago but the colors were so boring that l hated it. I finally took it from my cupboard of no return and decided to play with color. I had fun picking out any color l felt like using and the end result, whilst not ever so realistic, is at least not boring!

Bee Eaters

Bee Eaters. A pair of beautiful Bee Eaters. l use Faber Castell Polychromos and Caran D’ache Luminance and Pablo’s and Holbeins for all my art but for this piece l have used mainly Faber Castell Polychromos.

Mocca the Macaw

Mocca the Macaw. I have had a craving (yes really) to draw a red Macaw. I have no idea why l suddenly want to draw with a certain color, l don’t think l have ever drawn a predominately red animal and l was really excited at the thought of it. So here is the stunningly beautiful Mocca. Drawn using Faber Castell Polychromos and Caran D’ache Luminance and Pablo’s and Holbeins on Stonehenge paper.
