Proud Pigeon

7.5x11 mixed media on 140 lb Fabriano hot press paper started yesterday and completed today.  Media used:  Watercolor, acrylics, Montana acrylic markers 15mm, India ink, Iridescent Antique Gold (Daniel Smith watercolor).  After drawing the bird in pencil, I
stamped mini bubble wrap painted with white acrylic and a bit of watercolor, then painted him, applying shiny metallic gold over neck area.  Montana markers used to go over background and when dry black India ink partly outlines the pigeon.
