#11 Kristin, robins in the yard
5 x 8.5" mixed media sketchbook page
(c) 2011, klink
I did this little robin quickly this morning. It is fun to watch the birds hopping around the yard. I haven't painted many birds, but hope to get better at it. The robins remind me of little men in grey suits with white spectacles.

I love the soft colors in your painting...and his sweet expression!
You captured Robin persona really well!! Kristin, what is this lovely paper you use? Is it a color already, or do you do that? It's sooo appealing!
The paper is canson mi-tiens. I think its made for pastels, but I have a bunch of different natural colors cut up and punched to fit in my sketchbook. It is so nice to start with a middle range value and then add darks and lights.
