Artist Reply: Thanks Richard! I will try to get to finishing some more hummingbirds soon. I've some more in stages of completing, just not happy with them yet to post.
Artist Reply: Thank you! I like to use watercolr like brushes, such as just plain water. It lets me get a smoother blending, without the layering effect watercolor may do. I can use the water brush to blend mix media that you might not be able to do normally, but can using with computer art.
Artist Reply: THank you! Clearity is something I like about using a wacom tablet & stylus. I have shakey hands at times so find the wireless stylus pen easier to hold than a real brush. (I don't spill or smear either.) Since I can undo a mistake, I can get more accurately what I wanted.
Both the hummingbird and the flowering plant are very realistic. Excellent work!
Artist Reply: Thank you Cher! Sometimes I use different styles while painting hummingbirds & florals. I like to play up the colors and background to add to the mood.
very impressive...so really looking....love the motion...
Artist Reply: Thanks so much! Hummers are challening to decide to do a still shot or blur the wings. I do both, but like to see the details sometimes to appreciate the beauty of the bird's body.
Artist Reply: Thanks Nelly! I'll be trying to do a series of hummingbirds. I found out there are about 300 species around the world! That will keep me busy for a while!
