Pssst! Tal? Not the whole bird; just legs and toes. 😊 Do you have skiiiii-neeeey legs? Nia? Your matter-of-fact assessment was spot on! Not surprisingly. And Calliope! I’m always happy to see the celebratory side of your spirit! While it is said, “Blessed are the peacemakers,” there’s no harm in reveling in achieving our personal goals.
Pssst! Cal, pass that on to “draw-paintist.” No matter how many creativist implements it takes. A palette knife is totally unsuited for the pin feathers on this wee bird’s breast. Not even the $119.00 one I saw in a search just now! Yikes!!
