thing 22: bird drawing

colored pencil, oil pastels, marker on 5″x7″ canvas.

i’ve had this little canvas for a while. not sure what prompted the bird.. perhaps my desire for spring and color outside. the fluffly white is quite pretty, but i yearn for spring. i’m tempted to cover it in resin to make it hard and shiny, but i haven’t quite decided. i’ve never put resin on canvas before.. and the canvas is a little stretched out from me coloring on it with pencils, so i don’t know how it would dry. probably it would be fine with a couple coats. we’ll see how i feel about it in a few days.

it felt good to draw again.
