I LOVE to PAINT! After finishing up creating three 2016 calendars, I was in the mood to let loose. I love birds and bright colors, so what better way to have fun then paint a whimsical bird on a 20"x20" wrapped canvas.
Below, you can see how I began the painting. I generally sketch shapes using the paint and go from there.
I also tried dripping some liquid acrylic, but I didn't really like it. That's the beauty of experimentation with paint. There are no mistakes - just opportunities to try different techniques.
I recently submitted my painting to be considered for Pottery Barn Wall Art Challenge on Printed. Please consider leaving a comment on there. Thanks!
