Love doves



I wanted to make more birds from clay, so doves was an easy pick. But when it came time to paint them I came to a stop, I didn't want to use the color blocking method I've used in my other birds. Instead I wanted them to have text and in particular the part in "Pride & prejudice" where Mr. Darcy proposes to Elizabeth.
A lot of testing was done, I figured out how to do it and now I have two doves ready, each a bit different from the other but exactly how I imagined them to be. I photographed the first one, sorry for the dark images, it's been clouds and rain for two days in a row.

Wishing you a great day,
Aleka
