We were in a great bar in Napoli today. There was a box of games where we were sitting, in the box was a sketch book and an art set with pencils,watercolour pencils, and a water brush. So I cobbled this up in a couple of minutes.

I know it looks like a penguin, but it's actually a hooded crow.

Saw this lovely one today, in Brunate Italy, near Como. Anyone know what it is?

So I saw this little fella yesterday in Como. I didn't even know Italian Sparrow was even a thing.

Beautiful.

I took this photo after spotting him jumping around the outdoor cafe we were sat at.

Painting watercolour birds in my art group, I really love the simplicity of this one. My first bird.

I've always loved looking at this Tom Baker appreciation while having a pint of Malaga in the Vernon Arms. Now some scroat has wrecked it.

Why the fk would you do that?

I painted the view from our window.

This bird of prey took a pied wagtail right in front of me. It's mate was making a racket and chased after it when it flew off. Sorry for terrible photos.

I've started sketching after starting watercolours in an arts class. I'm enjoying the process. Here's a WiP, I'm going over the pencil with clearer fine marker before adding watercolour. Others in comments.
