Comical Cardinal

4.25x4.25 acrylics on gessoed watercolor paper of an imaginary male cardinal. It was fun to put all the reds and oranges I had into its feathers. COPYRIGHT 2022 Kay Smith

Fat Cardinal

6x8.5 watercolor and Faber Castell Pitt XS pen on Color-Sketch paper done last week, a whimsical look at a fluffy, fat male cardinal sitting out on his branch or twig.  I love doing these fun birds in art, a common sight outside my windows.
