A Saturday Scribble by Fiona Phipps

Comments

Very recognisable as a magpie feather!

A beautiful feather!

It’s good Fiona, maybe a little drop of Viridian Green would do the trick. Lol

It's the magic of the natural world which is so hard to capture . Love the soggy raggedyness of it, Fiona.

A lovely piece Fiona!

Nicely done Fiona.

And what a Saturday scribble it is!! Wonderful Fiona.

An interesting thing to paint and I love the charming raggidy bits of the feather Fi Ona.

You have captured this very nicely Fiona ,pity you missed the glint of sunshine, we have not had much of that recently

Get the turquoise out! I love this feather. Love the movement.

Lovely Fiona.

Beautiful. This just shows that we don’t need to trek miles carrying all our gear, to find a wonderful simple subject! It has a great feel of movement and delight.

You’ve captured that ragged look really well, Fiona.

Brilliant idea Fiona a great demonstration of what is possible , you have taken a simple think and make it into a great piece of art.

Good study Fiona.

Thank you very much Heather, Anne, John, Sarah, Andrew, Stephen, Rachel, Carole, Chris, Marjorie, Denise, Tessa, Jenny, Paul, George for your lovely comments on my scribble, I always enjoy reading your views. I only have turquoise in gouache and I’m not brave enough……😂😂😂

Small watercolour and ink pen on photography paper. A soggy Magpie feather found in the garden. I haven’t managed to capture the glint of sun on the blue in the feather which attracted me to sketch it. Just couldn’t get that iridescent sheen.
