The little chicadees kept me company as I worked in the garden, and then I painted one! I'm using three inks, Diamine Nutcracker, Robert Oster's Detox, and Levenger Raven black on a watercolor paper I thought was handmade..... but now I'm not so sure sure... It should be cotton, but I don't think it's 100% based on the ink and water reaction. It's not bad, but it's different, and every new paper is an exploration of how it handles my specific technique. I love spending time in nature, and the birds are begging to be painted! Painting number 5184 in 5184 days.
