Morning in the city.

in art •  8 years ago 

There is a certain creative buzz that I get when waking up in the city. Today that city is Birmingham, UK. For me the best time to explore is early in the morning. The streets are quiet and the morning sun casts beautiful shadows. My favourite memories of Venice are of the streets at dawn, a few locals and the road sweeper, and that gorgeous Venice light.

This morning the light was perfect for completing the sketch I started at yesterday's Birmingham Steemit meet-up 'Mr Brum'. Sat in my hotel room I added the final touches, now I think he is ready to shake a tail feather or two!

Sunday morning in Birmingham

Brilliant bird, I really like the variety of colours used

Thank you! Yes he is a very multicoloured bird!

OK, I want some of that breakfast.

He's a happy bird now, isn't he?
Did you prep the background overnight to allow it to dry or is it fairly quick drying paint?
How was the meetup?
