Here is the painting, and as always, all items are painted their actual size. It's 12" x 20" and oil on panel. There are some interesting textures in this one. Many of them are familiar, but the book and feather were new challenges for me. There was a lot scrapping to achieve the book texture, also some glazing in the ceramic bird - something I don't normally do. This painting was a great learning experience and I'm glad it came out as well as it did.
Since last December I've been working on a commissioned painting for a client's wife. His wife is a bird enthusiast and he thought a painting of some of her birding items would make a great present. All this time he has kept the painting a secret from her so this would be a surprise. Last week I finally completed the piece and shipped it out to them, just in time for Mother's Day. I can't imagine how exciting this Mother's Day was for her! Here is the painting, and as always, all items are painted their actual size. It's 12" x 20" and oil on panel.
