Giving Everyone the Bird

I worked on a painting last night using friskets (look it up) to create a sort of stencilled look. The problem was that the bird was ugly and my craftmanship was sloppy. So today I made a bird in Illustrator so I can print it out on a frisket (in this case, it'll be four probably) and make a better painting. But in the meanwhile, I colored the line image in and here it is.

I mostly just bought the friskets because I like the word. I bought a pack of 100 sheets of 9"x11" frisket film. It's like a clear plastic sticker. But it is nowhere near as easy to use as I had hoped, and my second bird sucks as much as the first. But I am going ot keep trying!
