   Hi Kevin,

You make me want to draw. Oh, wait, I am drawing.......OK, you make me want to draw THAT!!

I relate so much to your style. It has a way of 'bringing me home' somehow. You have great finesse. After you've completed this piece, by darkening the tones of the birds body features just a bit, I predict this will be seen in magazines. Your "out-of-focus" touch here is so nice....like "buttah". You're good dude!

   Well Ladies and gentleman. I think I'm at that point that alot of us get to. That point where you think the picture is done and are just about to sign it.
I must admit that this one was quite a big challenge. Bigger than I thought it was going to be. I had some difficulty this time in trying to separate the slight differences in colour and value. Please feel free to let me know what you think or offer critiques.
I'd also like to thank everyone that offered their input that helped me get to this point.

Kevin

   Just simply lovely Kevin.

Looks EXACTLY like a tight field of focus....about an 3.5F-stop , I'd say.

I think it's ready for that magazine spot.
