On Fanciful birds comparison

This is a blog to document a challenge between friends. Carolyn Foley and Pam Holland. Each week we will make a small 6" block documenting the detail we have noticed in our experiences during that week. The rules are a bit fluffy right now, I guess we will make them up as we go. I will add my ideas, sketches and auditions daily... You will see the finished block or illustration at the end of the week.
