Bird's Nest

Work in progress. I'm going  to draw this from a different angle.
Not sure what bird made this nest but it does have plastic on the outer layer. I think I actually prefer the first stage of the drawing below, I found the inside layer more fun to draw.........

Another cauliflower

I enjoy painting cauliflowers but I was distracted as I'm eager to get started on a bird's nest I've just been given.(Now the tiny ants have vacated) Most women get flowers, diamonds or chocolates........
This is a different cauliflower, now to make a cheese sauce.
Thanks for your comments everyone
