BLUE JAY MAMA AND BABY


The Winsor Newton texture medium dried on the branches and I began painting them, paying attention to the colors and lights in the photo.  Added a little Cobalt blue to the background sky while it was wet.
Birds come next!

    The branches alone are just stunning, a painting on their own. This will be a beauty. Now don't mess it up! ;)
