I have had this one printed out for ages to paint and come across it again when I was sorting out my pile of reference photos.

European Goldfinch ACEO in acrylics
I had this one all ready to paint before I went on holiday but never got around to painting it - I had a few computer and mobile phone problems which threw my painting schedule out the window
I saw quite a few of these birds in Tasmania - they were introduced to Australia in the19th century. I wasn't able to get any good shots of them around the accommodation I was staying at but I did visit a zoo in Richmond and they had an aviary with different finches and one of them was the Goldfinch. Managed to take a few good photos so I am planning on painting another one but it will be in a larger format with a more detailed flower background.
European Goldfinch measures 3.5 x 2.5 inches and is painted on 300gsm smooth Arches watercolour paper.
Many thanks to Kev Chapman for the reference photo.

European Goldfinch ACEO in acrylics
This bird was actually introduced to Australia in 1860's. Strangely enough it can be found in Brisbane but I haven't seen it here. I have seen it in Tasmania though. When visiting Woolmers Estate (http://www.woolmers.com.au/), there was one sitting on top of a rose bush. I managed to take a photo but the lighting was wrong and I was quite a distance from it so it does not make a good reference photo for me to use.
