Hummingbird & Butterfly

Slide to see Charlie O’Shield’s original version.

The challenge this time is to draw and paint a hummingbird and butterfly feeding at a flower. I mostly followed Charlie’s instructions but I think I learn more when changing things a bit so I did a different drawing and changed the colors on the butterfly a bit, plus added a little splatter for background.

And I screwed up on the butterfly wings because I didn’t wait for the paint to dry … er… I mean I did some totally on -purpose blending and layering on the wings. Whew! Almost let you know I make mistakes!
