Peekaboo Bird in Brusho

12x9 watercolor Brusho completed yesterday; sketched in pencil on a sheet of Canson put behind larger work you can see the chickadee peeping out.  Featured on current weekend drawing event on WetCanvas, the refs provided by Bonnie, the host, showed a fake bird in a nursery garden.  I had turned it horizontally in a landscape format but like it better vertical/portrait.  I used blue and black Brusho crystals on dry paper to start.  The pink lilac was already on the paper as was the turquoise blue Brusho area.
