Paint Party Friday - A Colourful Bird

Welcome to Paint Party Friday! I hope you'll visit some of the other talented participants in this fun blog hop hosted by Eva and Kristin!

This is a notecard on cardstock, (3" x 4.5") in acrylic. I received a photo of colourful birds in an email and decided to try painting one of them. Yes, it's based on a real bird. Unfortunately I don't know where it's from.

A fun feathery bird! I like the white outline.

You did a good job, Christine. I doubt such a bird exists in Hawaii.

Great bird, wish we had some like that here. The crows here have just held a pow-wow in the tree outside my window, they are soooo noisy! Valerie

It's a beautiful bird, Christine. I love the white outlines. I don't think he visits us in the south.
