    Just beautiful! I'm so enamored with the detail work you do. What do you use to do that? Is it a fine paintbrush?

    Thank you all so much!

    Jacilyn, I use an assortment of watercolor brushes. My favorite is the rigger - it is long and thin and creates a very fine line.

    Thank you Denise and Laura! I think in real life the eggs are grey - but I prefer blue! ; )
