So really, "What is the air speed velocity of an unlaiden swallow?"
It's quite simple:
Drag on a body in a fluid is:
D = 1/2 (Cd*pi*r^2*rho*Vo^2) Cd = coefficient of drag of the swallow pi = 3.1415... r = radius of bird cross-section (approximating as a circle) rho = viscosity of air Vo = velocity For steady state flight, D (drag) = T (thrust), so:
------------------------------
| Vo = sqrt(T/Cd*pi*r^2*rho) |
------------------------------

You should listen to him then. I have been wanting to try painting soon. I was thinking more of oils but that's really nifty. You should keep posting them.

She's already taking requests for commissioned works. Her mom wants a "long and narrow" painting that will match the colors in her kitchen.

They're really lovely! And it looks like a lot of fun.
