Ladybirds for Ena

Comment from ArtistCharles
Very nice illustration with good color and detail My American base makes me prefer Lady Bugs. This is a fun and interesting piece. You cheated since she asked for 3 and you actually gave her 4. Looks like there could be more in the future:-)). This could work well in a child's book as an illustration. Well seen.

Charles,
Thanks a million for your complementary review on this collection of painted sketches of Ladybird Beetles.
I could have given Ena several more but choose to stop with the two most common ones in Ireland, the Two & Seven Spot varities & the Red with Black Spots. She also asked for Bees & Bumble Bees which I found more of a challenge in getting the wings to look transparent & iridescent ..I won't be posting those!!

Hi Susan!
Your drawing of these Ladybugs looks fine to me,my friend!
I don't know ( or care ) very much about so-called 'famous painters' like dreary old Monet or Renoir but I think you ROCK,my friend! : D
'Good Show'!

The positioning of your ladybugs within your composition creates a nice visual. Colors are well worked and details are sharp and well drawn. Background color compliments the piece very well.

I like how you presented this lovely watercolour showing the pretty Ladybirds in different positions with the leaves adding good contrast. I'm sure your cousin was very pleased with these. Very good use of colours and great detail drawn in the Ladybird markings. Also, thank you for the interesting notes accompanying this.
Lovely composition. I look forward to seeing more of your art. Suzanne

A very attractive presentation. The ladybugs are meticulously drawn and shown in great realistic colors. I like the layout of the drawing showing the insects from different angles.
