finn's oriole

so this one is the one that is somewhat better than the hot-mess i tried to do for smash-girl. i slowed down with the lettering. it helps that the bird is in a wacky position. most of the bird stamps are pretty, but they are pretty traditional poses on limbs. we have so many zany stamps these days, i guess i am less inspired by the traditional designs. not that i don't like traditional things...i love getting old. i'm less obsessed with analyzing everything. maybe. i guess i have to go analyze that thought. then i have to figure out where to put the street and zip.....

 that F needs some weight at the top. but i am not going to scan it again.

  2. you're welcome. it is on that really nice bamboo paper, so you're right, you do have to see it in person to get the full effect
