Oil on 5x7 hardboard.Here's my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. The photo was provided by Gail.
I first covered the board with black gesso. Love that stuff!
I recall doing this same ref on April 25, 2008. I also believe it was when Gail was hosting. So, I thought I might do better the second time around. Don't know if I did but it was fun doing this one again.
With Thanksgiving a short time away I imagined these wise birds as doing some training in jogging and evasive tactics.

ReplyDeleteJe ne sais pas si vos pintades font du jogging mais elles fuient... Beau mouvement dans cette peinture. Félicitations.
ReplyDeleteLovely! Makes one feel like they are out in the field with the turkeys. Very nice colors in all.
