Have also been practising birds in my Sketchbook which have found quite difficult to do. They are far from perfect, so its just practise practise practise.
From top left: Gannet, Eastern Rosella, Eagle Owl and Snowy Owl (just in case you don't recognise them...lol ) |
Wishing you a very happy weekend whatever you are doing. Think mine will be spent drinking quite a lot of wine in the hope that inspiration will strike, that's providing it doesn't send me to sleep...............lol
Am off to the Party soon and to visit all your wonderful creations. Take care, hugs Annette x

Really really beautiful painting and drawing Netty.
Love your work.
Have a lovely weekend my dear. xoxo
Well I love Juliet but the birds are great, way way better than I could do. have a great weekend.
Juliet is beautiful, and your bird sketches are good. They are so hard to do. My Japanese neighbour paints birds with brush and ink, in just a few strokes, I don't know how she does it, I just get a mess! Oh well! Thanks for your good wishes! Valerie
Wow a stunning work in progress,fabulous bird sketches too.xxx
You are one very clever lady and your bird sketches are fabulous. Have a good weekend. Jan x
Your lady is amazing Netty, I really enjoyed her last week already but the additional work has made her even better. Love how well you have done her hand particularly, I know from experience how hard hands are! The birds are great too, and remember, practice makes perfect.
Hope your own hands are doing ok,
have a great weekend!
She is looking great Netty as are your birds love the owl with the eyebrows LOL
well you know what I mean !
What a transformation, a beautiful Juliet and your sketches look really good to me Annette.
Have a great Friday.

Love the painting and I really like that owl face in your sketch book. Thanks for the reminder of the importance of practice.
Netty, your Juliet is so gorgeous. Worthy to hang in any museum, my friend. And as for your birds, they far exceed anything I could do. I don't do animals and birds very well. Faye
I enjoy to see the progress on this Juliet painting Netty and I love your birds... great! The card with the ballerina is also adorable in my mind!
Happy PPF - Have a nice weekende! Take care of you!

Very romantic work, the animals are good way. Saludos
She is so deep in thought and holding on to that necklace like it's crucial. Beautiful! I hope you get to finish your other painting over the weekend.

Wow Nettie!!! Juliet is wonderful! I love the way you have her playing with her necklace. And your birds in your sketchbook look perfect to me! Loving the new look of your blog as well. Have a fabulous weekend partaking of the "juice". I don't think you ever lack for creativity, but it's fun to sit back and relax anyway. xo :-)
I love the "longing look of love" in Juliet's face....great job!
blessings,
Cindy ♥
I love your birds!!!
I think your lady has a fairytale look!!!

Juliette is looking pensive today, too. It is one of the rites of Spring..renewal? She is lovely and very feminine but strong. Your bird sketches are very good, methinks!

Oh, Netty, your Juliette is gorgeous! She has such a quiet dignity about her. And your bird sketches make me want to get out my sketch book. They look wonderful to me!!
Good luck with your painting homework. Most of my paintings go through some "ugly" phase and suddenly they will start coming together.

She's gorgeous! I know what you mean by practice! I kept drawing hands till they didn't look like monsters. Now I am drawing birds- it's surprising how simple birds are but it's not so simple to draw! Patsy from

Hi Netty. Just want to thank you SOOOOOOO much for the lovely comment on my blog and also the help. I have managed to get it sorted!!!!!! Thanks so much! It's ages since I passed by your blog, in fact ANY blogs, but hopefully I will get back into it eventually. Love the way you put your hand to anything crafty, you are so talented! Thanks again xxx
I liked your Juliet and her expression of something beyond giddy headed love! Is she thoughtful? To me she is more mature than Romeo. The birds are great. Thank you for visiting. :-)
Netty, Beautiful painting & Lovely sketches:)))
HPPF!
WOW...this is awesome...gorgeous work, dear Netty!!!!!
Fantastic array of birds, Netty. I can't draw birds worth a hoot!!!
