This is my first in this series creations birds. Birds are amazing and colorful species on the earth and I would like to celebrate their role in making this world a wonderful place to be. Their morning chirping, their beauty, and their playfulness is really soothing for us. Of course I will be picking some of the most beautiful birds for my creations here.
The bird above is
Hildebrandt's starling (Lamprotornis hildebrandti). More info can be found
wiki. This is a crayon pencil drawing. I have used a set of only 24 shades to create this. More shades would have rendered the art near to perfection. Its a very beautiful bird. the shading complexity required to render those beautiful shades was a challenge. Its done on A3 cartridge sheet. I got the interest to do the birds after I did a duck for my mom's school assignments and thought that it came out beautiful. Hopefully more will come out in this series in the coming years.I have not used color pencils much and need some fine tuning and understand a few techniques with them.
