Another cardinal – number 8 in the trials mentioned in the previous post. He is more serene than the first one. Painted the same way but with an entirely different result!
It’s amazing what can happen if you just try a little. After so many wonderful people, both online and off, encouraged me to continue with the birds, I was bold enough to paint a few to list on Etsy and have had the good fortune to sell a chickadee. You can see the remaining listings over there on the left.
Of course, I’m just as excited as a kindergartner at a carnival! I’m planning more small paintings and have a notion for birds of prey in larger formats. Any thoughts or ideas?
