This is a beautiful drawing of these two pigeons; showing such great detail and realistic appearance. I appreciate the narrative, but not sure what a squeaker is in relation to pigeons.

A very beautiful and unique visual presented here. I love your shading. It's so fantastic. There are so much details in the feathers. The eyes are windows to their souls. Beautifully done and visually delightful to look at. Thank you for sharing.

Oats,
thank you for you time, support and comments on my rendering. L am pleased that you liked it enough to award the drawing a 6 star rating, it is an honor to have received it.
I used prismacolor pencils to draw this one, and used the layer technique along with their blender pencil.
Take care and be safe.
Cheers,
Lucien

You are very welcome. I?m finding that the different papers make a huge difference
-
yes, paper does make a difference, as does the type of color pencils you are using, mixing brands also adds twist and challenge in creating a cohesive drawing. that is why I practice in my sketchbook a lot, to try different techniques, and combinations, before going to a final drawing. practicing is what makes you better. and tacking class now and again helps as well.
thank you again for your support.
Cheers.
Lucien

Lauryl,
pleased to read in your review of my drawing that you like my drawing of these two fantail. They are different in their coloration, as well as in their personalities with Francis, the darker one being more calm ( who is diseased) and Clarence a little more aggressive in very loving way.
Thank you for your time and comments
have safe holiday season,
Cheers.
Lucien
Comment from ReginaL
Again, very good job. I love birds and my brother used to draw them all the time so I quite enjoy looking at pictures of them. This picture is very well balanced and interesting. I like how you made the pigeons different colors instead of making them the same it keeps the picture from being boring. Bravo!

Comment from shoregrass
I found this immediately appealing and immensely artistic, Lucien. I admire birds so much and this piece and your notes made me fall in love with these two. Your colored pencil rendering is impeccable and your friend is right - their personalities do shine through - it's in the eyes. Best of luck in the contest too.

shoregrass,
thank you for your time and encouraging comments on my artwork and of course the wonderful 6 star rating , I am honored by receiving it for this piece.
You said you like birds, I have written several fantasy books using pigeons as the main characters, the books are available on Amazon, "k-bridge, by Lucien van Oosten", take a look and read the reviews, you might enjoy reading the story as well.
Take care, Happy Holidays.
Cheers.
Lucien

Very well rendered pigeons in the two different color patterns, well shown texture of their feathers, nice work to show the shape and structure of the two birds. I especially appreciate the way you bring them to life with your creation of their eyes! Well arranged and presented!

Hey there Lucien!
Beautiful work you have drawn here. The body language and forms of the two pigeons are great. I appreciated the notes on the drawing. The feather textures are great and present a nice eye catching initial impact. Great work!
Also congrats on the reviewing contest winner!
