Baby Sparrow

12x9 mixed media on Canson 140 lb cold press paper begun last week using the paper I'd had for a backing sheet, thus all the various marks. Next an outline of a baby sparrow was sketched in ink then the background filled in using watercolor gouache, gel pen, India ink, Brusho, and acrylics for this contemporary bird painting.

My smile today to see a “recycled” bird. Clever and well done.
