So here goes my first WIP or work in progress. I tried to remember to take pics but would get lost in the painting soooooooo...I will try harder in the future :)
This painting was a commission for a very dear friend. It was titled by another friend in jest but I loved it. So it stuck.
The Beginning
I have sketched out the photo and picked my paint colors. One of the first things I do is pick
the paints. One problem here though, I forgot what I used..sorry..I will do better next time.
I also masked off the areas I want to keep white. I am going to guess that I mixed two blues
possibly Manganese and Winsor for the head and wings and Quinacridone Burnt Orange for the
breast.
Here I have added a few more details and began the background with a wash of blue
followed by some sap green.
The baby bird is very vocal :) . I have mixed blues and orange to make a brown.
Here is the finished painting.
I worked on the background adding more blues and greens.
The branch was a mix of orange and blues.
