Male American Goldfinch in watercolor, 5×7, canson 200gsm
Hello everyone! It’s the 8th of the month and welcome to another Draw A Bird Day! My heartfelt thanks to a dear friend, Laura of Create Art Every Day for inviting me to join this wonderful community.
Just as I was thinking of what bird to learn and discover for this month, my younger cousin requested for a yellow bird. She then sent me a photo of a male american goldfinch she got from the web. As always her timing was perfect. I am happy of what came out from a day of figuring out proportions and mixing colors. Its not perfect but perfection was not the aim for this journey but rather learning and enjoying the process no matter how slow.
Have a pleasant weekend folks!
