Bird Trio Commission

These lucky birdies have a new home in Ohio. The trio features the red (northern) cardinal which is the the state bird of Ohio, the barn swallow and the American robin.

These were small A5, cold pressed watercolours painted mainly in Brusho and watercolour.

For fun I thought I would include a tragic photo of all the drafts to embarrass myself, why not?

Most of the time I just lose that ‘special feeling’ about artwork I make and just ditch it and make another one. I like to think I keep those kind people at *Canson and *St Cuthberts Mill in Rolex, haha!

*Not sponsored by the way, but highly recommended. They deserve their Rolexes anyway.
