“House Sparrow”, 12″x12″ oil pastel on canvas. Painting this little lady was pure joy

October 17, 2018 at 2:16 am #712491His is really good Becky, nice and delicate, I like the hint of a shadow. We have lots of sparrows nesting in the houses around here, they completely vanish over summer and autumn, then in winter they all slowly come back. I love watching them on the feeders.

So long, and thanks ...
October 17, 2018 at 4:45 am #712495It’s a wonder how much expression you got out of the bird, with the eyes, and the posture.
I love the feet.
Congratulations! I’m so glad you showed it to us.
