Lovely and delicate work Annie.

It's beautiful Annie, it does look so pretty and delicate you are right to be pleased with it.

Thank you Linda and Margaret, this sold straight away, which is rare !

Lovely colours and such a delicate touch. Particularly like the way the individual fronds of the feather blur (presumably onto damp paper) in some places, but are fine and precise in others.

Angela, what an interesting comment. This was me experimenting with crystal paint which you sprinkle then spray with water (getting a blurry effect in some places) I then let everything dry (helped with the hair dryer) and went over the top with a fine brush and paint which was already mixed with the water. I discovered these paints on a craft course and found they were very good helping me to "loosen up" a bit.

Crystal paint, water spray and brush. I am pleased with this as, just for once, I didn't get too heavy-handed and lose the delicacy of the feather.
