  2. Certainly more colourful, than our blck and white pelicans.

    Looks good Linda, so neat to see you still creating.

    If you can sraighten up his beak, he would look even better.

    I really love the reflections in the water.

  4. Thank you! I did straighten up his beak right after I took the picture...had to use a pastel with an edge instead of a unison there in that area. If it was a nature study I couldn't have gotten away with changing his color but since it was just for fun it didn't matter.lol Today is WDE day on WC...hope they have some photos I like.

  5. I thought WDE stood for Weekend Drawing Event?

    Oh it is Friday night here, so they post the images on Friday mornings now? How strange..
