WT527 Love this Bird!

Photo Details

Poster: donidoodle

Today's challenge is to use a watercolored background
I stamped distress inks onto an acrylic block, spritzed with water then painted onto the watercolor paper, carefully avoiding the stamped bird which after the background dried, I colored with copic markers.

Oh, that bird is so cute. Really like how the entire bg is not covered, really accents the image!
