Puffy Robin

5.5x8.5 watercolor on Masters paper in sketchbook done over the weekend for another timed WetCanvas event. I really rushed thru painting this in a record 35 minutes. The very young robin has its feathers fluffed up during a spring cold front. COPYRIGHT 2021 Kay Smith

Fat Redbreasted Robin

8x8 acrylics on gessoed foam core board done today, modeling the fat robin after ones in the front yard with spring tree blossoms. I used a lavender sky rather than the pale brown blowing sand we are used to seeing. A filbert #8 was used to paint this. COPYRIGHT 2021 Kay Smith

Northern Flicker in Spring

8x8 watercolor on Masters Premium 140 lb cold press paper done a few days ago, thinking about 20 March being the first day of spring for this year. A flicker is a woodpecker. COPYRIGHT 2021 Kay Smith
