September #BirdWhisperer: Black Woodpecker! I've been trying to think more about composition and value (light and dark balance) lately, so this guy's solid dark shape presented me with a good opportunity to push myself a little. #watercolor #art #birds #birdart 🦉

Happy #BirdWhisperer Day! Kept it simple this time around as my patience seems to have left the building 😂

Digital drawing of a black woodpecker. It is a largish-medium bird clinging to the side of a gray tree and has a long cream-colored bill, iridescent black feathers that are shining light blue where the light hits, and a tiny bit of red just along the back of its head.

Drawing of a black woodpecker clawed into the thick branch of a tree in front of a black tree hole.
The tree is drawn realistically while the bird is tessellated into triangles and coloured so that no two adjacent areas are in the same hues.

Day 30! - #carbon Double duty! It’s also #BirdWhisperer Project posting day. Black Woodpecker (Dryocopus martius). Found in mature forests across Europe and parts of Asia. The deep black was a challenge, but it fit the carbon theme nicely. #SciArtSeptember #birdart #watercolor

Watercolor illustration of a crow-sized black woodpecker. Facing right and clinging to a tree trunk in front of a large nest cavity. The bird has a red cap and a powerful ivory-colored bill.

Watercolour painting of a Black Woodpecker for the @birdwhisperers.bsky.social September art challenge. Find dark feathers tricky to paint. #BirdWhisperer #birds #painting #art #artchallenge #sketch #drawing #nature

An A5 watercolour painting of a black woodpecker on a vertical tree trunk with a dark hole in the tree behind the woodpecker. The woodpecker has a blue sheen to the feathers. It has pale yellow eyes with almost a triangle shaped black pupil. It has dark wing feathers and a bright red crest. Its yellow beak is long and pointed at the end. The feet are a light colour with a hint of grey-purple shade. The background to the left of the tree trunk is pale blue with out of focus brown branches. The tree trunk is yellowish on the left side and a light pinkish brown on the right with dark holes in the bark and horizontal lines.
