In 2020 I realised I am way more of a perfectionist than I thought I was. The solution to that is to churn out as many happy digital birds as possible.
Day 8: A Quintessential Quail.
I’m posting them over on my Instagram first (@artjmtinsta) so you can follow along there.
I’m afraid today is another quick one. It was date night and I worked late so didn’t have a lot of energy to give.
It started as a little doodle but I decided it started to look like a frame or stage, so added some very lazy curtains.
When I read “flowing” I think of long flowing hair. And then I think of this photo I finished a couple of years ago so I thought I’d have another go.
Today was just a quick sketch so this and the original are hardly comparable but it’s fun to do nonetheless.
I really wasn’t sure whether to upload this one or not. I like it, but I feel like I could do better. I might try another sketch later just for fun and see which I prefer.
The trees are ‘gigantic’ compared to the house. I wanted to suggest that there was light and warmth from the house. I’m not sure if the trees are welcoming and looking after the house, or whether they’re ominous!
