Birds

My scanner just went ahead scanned each bird separately. I had to scan again so that all 3 of 'em appear in the same page.

I've been meaning to paint this for a while, I just never got to it until now. This reminds me of a painting I did back in 2009. It was inspired by the song Put Your Records On by Corinne Bailey Rae. The first line of the song goes.. Three little birds sat on my window, and they told me there's no need to worry.. My work sucked at the time. I never knew how to use paints and colors much. I've been trying to improve ever since.

I think I did ok with this one. The first bird is the prettiest I think. The second one took the longest time, but I had the most fun painting him. I just love the bright blue color. And the third bird took the shortest time. My painting teacher told me that watercolor is the hardest medium to use. Well, it undoubtedly is. But it's the medium that I've had most practice with. I might try oils again sometime. :-)
