Joyful Cardinal
4x4 watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper, a sheet I used underneath smaller works. After a careful pencil sketch of the cardinal, I used three red and red-orange hues of paint and a mixed black for his mask. Lots of fun to paint these imaginary scenes with birds.

Cardinals always seem like Christmas to me. Maybe it is the red. This is beautiful.
