Excellent portrait of your pigeon done with coloured pencils. You've shown the different textures of the feathers, beak and eye and basket very well. I like the natural colours you used for this. Very good light and shade. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

Great detail, the pigeon looks real with lovely reddish brown feathers. Very nice uses of color pencils to create this awesome pigeon in a basket with a white egg. Very nice work. Thanks

There are indeed a lot of textures to be found within the drawing. The textures of the feather of head, chest and wings and the soft downs below and the egg are well distinct from each other, and nesting materials and the protective bowl. The tight framing is adequate for this close-up portrait. You paid excellent attention to exact detail, perspective and proportion. You drawing is informative and attract the interest of the viewer.

Another masterly work from your collection. It is always nice to see different approaches. The natural colour really speaks here.I also like the gentle overflow of textures which seems to lead the gentleness of the pigeon! Good luck!

A good sketch of this pigeon and the colours of his plumage shown off with good control of textures both light and dark that give this subject a little depth.The details have been well applied throughout with a good structure too

You are super talented with colored pencils and I'm sure many other mediums.
The textures, pigeon and basket you drew look so real!
Great hustle!

The detail of the feathers is incredible but not just that but the nest and background having colors that are so similar to the bird but yet your detail is so perfect there is no way the viewer would confuse them. I am impressed. Color, shading, and composition are all perfect

Comment from mamamary


I just don't understand how artists can make something look so real when they paint! It looks just like a photo! I wish I could do that. I will say I have never seen a pigeon this color. The pigeons I see are mostly gray. It looks like she is setting on an egg. Birds are such good mothers. Good luck in the contest!
