Hello everybody,
I was at the store the other day looking for Christmas decorations, and saw prints made to look like paintings of dogs with Santa hats so I decided to do a quick painting of something similar of our birdy boy. Honestly I wasn’t sure how this would come out since the only bird I have ever painted before had been a Raven. I’d like to do one of each of our 5 birdy babies.
I have a degree in graphic design but 90% of the jobs I have been hired to do since then has been painting murals of things I never would have chosen to do for myself. Its not often I get to do something for fun of something I want to paint without having to rush it so I had enjoyed this one. It was nice to do something on canvas in smaller scale not standing on a ladder! My son said I should have done a background but I kind of like having a bit of negative space.
Let me know what you think and if theirs anything that I could add.
