Inktober 2015 day 20 - Look

Description

Probably the most "complete" of my inktober drawings so far ^^
The thing in the sky is supposed to be a flock of starlings changings directions, but unfortunately it turned out too regular and not very dynamic.
And yeah, they're definitely looking in the wrong direction XD

Hello there I'm commenting on behalf of :iconprojectcomment:.

Just wanted to say while looking through my options of art to comment on that your painting/drawing caught my eye immediately. To say it was anything but those bright wonderful colors would be lying. You really have a wonderful ability to lay down some very nice colors and create a very pretty scene. Those trees in the background are beautiful and the sky looks just about as inviting as it can get. There's a children's book quality to your art that is very endearing and quite friendly to the eye.

I really do believe the only problem with the drawing is the birds. I'm not sure how it could have been improved since you need to show a large number of birds and still make it look like birds. Maybe you could have drawn birds in the foreground as you have them and as the flock receded into the background the shapes could have been smaller and smaller. Just a thought.

Overall I think your drawing is very impressive and it's the type of art that makes you smile and feel good about it. The birds are probably a problem that can be fixed through experimentation. You've definitely got the skills to make wonderful art. So keep up the good work.
