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.
