This is brilliant Richard, love how you have used the colour, better for keeping it limited.

So simple but so effective Richard you are a master at this type of drawing and using such little colour.

Thanks so much Fiona and Paul, much appreciated.

Excellent Richard, just a few lines, but it all works so well.

Good colour choices. The swan may not think so but I like it. Very modern.

Really like this! Thought it was a swan flamingo hybrid from the thumbnail! Very striking!

Thank you Lewis, Frank and Sarah. I did wonder about the red/pink colours but am not displeased with the outcome. In a strange way I think it works. Chuckled at your your hybrid comment Sarah. Good one !!!!

Partial Swan. A4 Cartridge Paper. Coloured Pencil. Another coloured pencil bird. It takes time getting used to Coloured Pencils. Some colours give a graded effect whilst others leave a distinct border. Practice as they say.......! In this instance think the sharp contrast works.
