Chickadees on Abstract Background

9x5 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper drawn and painted yesterday over an abstract background.  The paint marks are from putting this piece of paper underneath smaller works over a period of time.  It has been awhile since I painted any chickadees or birds, but did do penguins earlier in the month.  These cute little blackcapped chickadees are so cute and always bring a smile to my face.
