This was my first try at the bird Pheonix. I felt I neded to do it in colour, so I went looking for my watercolours. Of course I couldn't find my pencils, so I used paper (the kind you have on the dinner-table) and painted with that. It was quite fun, and I like how it turned out.  When I looked up "Pheonix" on Wikipedia, it said that in the Egyptian myth, it was a Heron-like bird that lived several centuries and when it died burned up and was rebourn from it's ashes. So naturally I thought of fire when doing this.
