Nesters - Birds in Broken Clay Pot
15x22 watercolor on Lanaquarelle 140 lb hot press paper of two birds nesting inside broken clay pot. I had first painted this close up of tiny items a few years ago then took the painting and redid its main areas. The tiny birds and pot nestle inside a larger clay pot holding a topiary from a florist. With my camera I shot a macro view for art purposes; the birds are actually made of mushrooms so I had to make them appear realistic.
