phobia
Unlike most people, I don’t have the typical phobias of spiders or snakes. No, my phobias are a bit strange…birds for one due to haunting memories of being chased by birds as a young child. So I present my “phobia” for Illustration Friday. It’s a soft pastel sketch with a couple layers of photoshop filters.

nice work, good colors, i like your style
i love the darkness of this image. nicely done.
it’s haunting
very nice!
I once suggested that we get a canary.
I got the look of death, heheheh.
beautiful execution!
Actually, birds are scary! Especially when they start flapping their wings close by! This is a gorgeous drawing though.
Kinda like a shot you’d see of wwII fighter planes in a dog fight. It definitely provides a spooky perspective, yet quite captivating. Nice work.
youve created a great atmosphere and sense of movement
Thanks for all the positive feedback…I’ve been wanting to try working with different subject matter for a change of pace so it’s good to hear that I’m heading in the right direction. The original is quite small with even more birds, but I tend to like this close up version. It might be a good piece to explore working on as a larger painting.
I love the colours you’ve used, they really evoke the fear. I like birds but I know a number of people who fear them so it’s not just you
This is gorgeous!
Beautiful!! Love the texture. Just hope you don’t shriek everytime a bird flies by.
i love it, beautiful!
Ha ha! I just got the evil idea to sneak up behind her… And say “Tweet tweet!”
