Kingfisher

Hello!

Today I want to show you a card with a Kingfisher bird I drew with Copics.
First time I made a realistic drawing with copic markers.
Unfortunately there is a very sad reason for this card.
My Mother-in-Law passed away last Sunday and will be burried tomorrow.
She always loved my cards and she loved birds and animals in general.
So this will be my last card for her.

  

I used the following copic colors ( I am taking the easy way this time ;) )





I am sure she would have loved it!
Until next time, have a colorful day.
