Mountain Bluebird ~ Draw a Bird Day is 8 April!

2.5x3.5 ink/watercolor done today getting ready for tomorrow's annual National Draw a Bird Day; I'll do a flamingo then.  Sketched with Lictin 0.3 black ink pen on an ACEO size cut out magazine card, only a few colors were used.  I see these mountain bluebirds when in New Mexico and their color is an electric turquoise blue. This art card edition original was fun to do.  Stay tuned for the flamingo.  Actual size is posted below for comparison.
