Hawaiian Cardinal

Hawaiian Cardinal__8x6 oil on linen panel

I painted this one for a friend...Since neither one of us had our own original photos, I used several that I found on the internet, and combined the head on one, with the body of another and made up my own background....Now that I look at it, I see a few things I will change before getting it to it's "home". A good idea for you artists is to take a photo and look at your work small or in black and white...it gives you a fresh view!...Happy New Year!

On the day after tomorrow, I will give away the 1000th daily painting that I did a few days ago.
