Bird series

I love painting a variety of subjects so I tend to add to my series work as I go along.  I have a bird series I have been working on and can't resist painting a little bird now and then.

"Mama is Mad!"
4 x 6 - oils on canvas panel







Note:  The colors in the background of this little sparrow are using cerulean blue, sap green and this khaki color I had on my palette.  Sometimes when I finish paintings I will combine all the paint together to see what I get.  The result this time was this khaki color green which I mix with the other colors and get this  kind of effect.
