Okay so I have taken on this commissioned painting - I've been doing research and sketches on Phoenicopterus, yes, Flamingo's. I thought I would share my piece as I go...any suggestions, feel free to let me know:
I received a great trade in the mail yesterday from Celia Bradshaw at http://adventuresofthestripedstockings.blogspot.com/
We did the July ATC trade hosted by Wendy at Bliss Angels and the theme was Sirens of the Sea:
I love what Celia did. My favorite is the steampunk mermaid, each time I look at her I see some added detail. Yes, she shall enhance my journey! I have a fasination with steampunk but have not had the courage to try it! Thanks Celia, I love them and the goodies!!!!

I'm still making the PPF rounds. Your Flamingo commission is coming along beautifully! I'm sure your client is going to be thrilled! p.s. your comments section must have accidentally gotten spaced very far down your page.
Congrats on your commission piece, it's looking good. Glad to hear there is lots of ATC trading going on!
Have a blast.
It's quite beautiful! I love the soft colors and the way it is gently taking form.
Love your flamingo commission, will be looking forward to seeing it finished! :)
Oh dear, just seen your computer has gone pfft! Hope you get it fixed.
This is coming along really well - soft and pink :)
Ahhh, Queen of flamingos you are! Proud to own one myself:-)
Your flamingo is looking lovely!
I think the flamingo is going in the right direction. So delicate and airy! Happy PPF
I am very fond of flamingos - I know God was smiling as he created these huge pink birds. I found out a while back that they can actually fly though it doesn't look possible! I think your painting is wonderful -
I love ALL birds. . .I made a Halloween flamingo out of cloth/stuffing for my witch that rode it. A fun thing to do. "She" painted her flamingo green to match her face, lol. http://jkwart.blogspot.com/2009/11/once-upon-time.html Your painting is going to be fantastic. Blessings, Janet PPF
