Avail yourself of some avian art

BIRDS!

These are two commissioned cockatiels, painted over a year ago.

And here is my favorite of my avian paintinglettes, an American Crow:

This is the latest example of the quick paper and acrylic work and, as it happens, also a bird. The white strips were masked.

Next I want to make something very different. Large, loose, messy.

A Long Hello-Again

Rex Avium (no, not that one)

Been a while

Grad school took over for a while there. Sorry oh invisible audience.

I've decided to try oils. Finally. Here's a closeup of the result of ~4 hours of untrained oil painting. The face measures ~2.5" in height, for reference.

I suppose this is 1/2 finished, but I haven't decided how detailed I want it to get - definitely needs to be sharpened and cleaned up a lot, though.

Don't judge me too harshly now - these here are baby steps.

Hello

Here is one of my recent drawings. It's pencil and ink on tea-stained watercolor paper.

Here is another one.



I have something of a schizophrenic style, so my drawings/paintings/artbits are all quite different from one another.

More to come.
