Too much poo cack is not a good thing.

I had a very rare whole day to paint today
and paint I did.
I bought my two inked paintings
home to work on
and decided to play with 
Mr P.

This is how he was when I brought him home

I roughed in his beak
gave him a bit of an eye
and a bit of shape to his beak.

I still have to refine it all 
but it's coming along nicely.

Except for his poo cack feathers.

Now my teacher is a
poo cack connoisseur,
she just loves that poo cack.
I, on the other hand resist it at every 
chance possible.
Yes De, I can hear you saying
you have to have poo cack to bring
out the bright colours.
But poo cack on his cute little feathers,
just can't stand it!!
Sorry De, I know you said NO
but I just had to do it.
Sorry about the toes, I inked some water and can't stand it upright yet.
Poo Cack GONE!!
Mwa ha ha, ooh the power,
I can sense the steam coming from 
my teachers ears,
ha ha ha ha ha......

See, even Mr P is smiling now!!!
Much as I hate to admit it,
a little poo cack is needed
just not on Mr P's feathers.

Happy painting everyone.
Linking up to PPF

  14. Hehe, the toes peeping in to the shot made me chuckle! I thought in Australia you had to wear shoes in case you tread on a poisonous spider!! I agree, poo cack is scarey! I call it the skanky teenage stage of a painting! It is such a relief when that stage is gone! It looks fabulous! :0)

  15. Actually these bigger structure organizations redistribute their plan work to South Asia and China where it is finished by non English-talking creators, which is a noteworthy negative. Except if the fashioner shares your language, it will be difficult for them to make a logo structure for your business. It might be incomprehensible for you to talk with them straightforwardly about the plan. In what manner will they have the option to consider every one of the components that go into how a group of people will react to your structure? logo design service

I really love getting comments but due to a high amount of spam I had to take the anonymous user off of the comments. Sorry to those who can't leave a comment.
Thanks, Von.
