Finished


I enjoyed putting more detail into this painting. I may have made the cloth too dark when I added the shadows but it is done now. I had originally intended to add some more pieces but decided against it in the end.

  5. Hi Wendy, Gorgeous native flora and feathers!! I miss the bird sounds from Australia, particularily the magpies which were prolific in Victoria where I lived. But Canada has nice birdsong too.

    1. Thanks Sally,Yes we have magpies all over the place too. They are such characterful birds and do have the most beautiful singing voices. Do you have Cardinals and Chickadees in Canada as well?
