Fun Flamingo

4.25x6 acrylics on paper, another magazine insert card from Acrylic Artist.  This is today's work, a close up view of a lovely pale pinkish orange bird.  Sketched in pencil first, this fellow was a fast study of contrasts with its black tipped beak, beady eye, and soft fluffy feathers.
