I have always enjoyed painting textures---wood, rust, etc. so this was a very enjoyable painting experience. I seem to have more difficulty than most getting the color yellow to show up as painted. I have tried many different ways to correct it, but I'm baffled. The yellow on the bird is actually a little more lemon colored.
Thanks to Nicole B for generously sharing the beautiful photo reference for this painting. I just love it.
