Bertie looks a feisty character! You've got a lovely touch, Paulette. The charcoal is so delicately done, the added colour just right.

I do like the way you paint these birds Paulette I think that you really catch the character and they are artistically done

Some of these robins are so tame. Very beautiful birds. You certainly captured its plumpness Paulette.

I love this cheeky grumpy robin!

Thought I would try another bird today, took this photo of this very plump robin sat on a branch singing away and then pausing to stare at me to see what I thought. I called him Bertie. I’m trying to incorporate charcoal into my bird art, with a flash of colour. Charcoal and conte on Stonehenge 9 x 12”
