This was another exercise in using basic shapes emphasizing the angles to give a simple subject strength. I also used some rich grays to pop out the color. I am pretty pleased with the results.

YELLOW BREASTED WARBLER

WARBLER
5 x 7 OIL ON PANEL
This little guy seems to have his feathers ruffled about something. I wonder if his computer crashed. Mine did and I am way beyond ruffled.
Computers are a wonderful tool but they have got to be one of the most frustrating devices ever invented. I thought about going to computer school but I would be outdated before I got out.
