robin by mavis allen

Lovely, lively colours and a cheerful card.

A sweetheart of an image; Cute and lovely. Well done Mavis

Lovely sky. One small thing....the bushes behind the robin detract from the robin's red breast. If you screw up your eyes and look again, the bird's head and red breast vanish into the back ground. So it is a tonal thing. The tones in the backgound must be soft, defused, almost grey. Maybe you could wet and rub lightly with a brush and with a tissue lift off the colour of that bush in the backgound, so that the bird stands out? Well done - a good attempt - it is not an easy subject.
