Several people have requested dragonflies from me. This
isn’t exactly what they meant, but it’s a start. I will be doing a whole collection of
straight-up dragonflies soon. I think this lady might be Tinkerbell’s mom.
Below is a glimpse into my process. I use painter’s tape to
secure the feather to a piece of cardstock and then rough in the shape of my
object with white paint (with the addition of whatever extra color I have on my
palette for shading to help me keep track of the major interior shapes). I
layer the basic colors of the painting on top of the white, then add detail,
and finally add shading and highlights with thinned-down black and white.
Length of Feather: 6
3/4”
