Contemporary Chickadee

5x7 acrylic on matboard, another in my chickadee series.  For this background I used a detail section of another painting which featured brocade pillows.  With this view there are actually two pillow patterns used.  In designing this bird it took about 2 days; colors are vivid flat shapes with little if any shading.

Contemporary Chickadee

5x7 acrylic on board, another in my chickadee series.  For this background I used a section of another painting which featured my grey tabby cat sitting on rich brocade pillows.  With this view there are actually two pillow patterns used.  In designing this third bird it took about 2 days; colors are vivid flat shapes with little if any shading.
