Lovely Lorikeet

22 1/4x 15 1/4 watercolor on Fabriano 140 lb cold press paper done today of another artist, Susan's lorikeet in a tree.  As a timed exercise for the weekend drawing event works had to be done within 2 hours and this one was 1 hour/45 minutes.  The foliage actually took the longest.  Her bird was next to a grey stucco wall but I've made it into clouds here.
