Ok, it's now time for the tail, So, we're going to start with a little bit of phthalo green, and I'm just bringing it out here so that I can test the density of it. So right here, we're going to produce a stroke, and I suggest that you practice this ahead of time. I've done this before, so I don't really need that much practice. The whole idea is you want to turn and pull off the page with a point, and you only need about three for the phthalo green. So now we're going for the phtahlo blue. Ok, you see how it's split up down there. That's exactly what I was looking for. Now I'm going to get a more dense color and come back and do. It's perfect when it splits up like that, because you want tail feathers that spread apart. So you either want a point, or multiple points.
