Day 7 of 30 in 30 painting challenge. I ended up with a real problem on this one. I accidentally stuck my finger in the paint on my work and smudged it all over the tail area. I tried to lift the color by re-wetting but ended up actually loosening up the paper, when i tried to blot it rolled up some. I was able to smooth it out some but lesson learned. The challenge of the stark white breast and getting subtle shading was interesting.
