Kookaburra ACEO in acrylics

I decided to paint Australian birds this week so also painted the Kookaburra.  Also really pleased how this one turned out - like the background effect that I created. 

Kookaburra measures 3.5 x 2.5 inches and is painted on 300gsm smooth Arches watercolour paper.

Kookaburra ACEO in acrylics

I  have been wanting to paint a kookaburra for a while. I decided to paint the aceo one first - I have another one lined up but that one will be a 7 x 5 inch.  I actually saw one the other day sitting on top of the street light.  I often hear them in the early morning as they have a very recognisable laughing call.  The kookaburra belongs to the kingfisher family and range from 28 - 42 cm in length.

Kookaburra measures 2.5 x 3.5 inches and is painted on 300gsm smooth Arches watercolour paper.

Many thanks to Wayne Butterworth for the reference photo.
