Ruby Throated Hummingbird in acrylics

I really enjoyed painting this one - everything just seems to work. 

 

The Ruby Throated Hummingbird is the smallest bird that breeds in Eastern United States and Eastern Canada.  It measures only 7 - 9 cm in length and weighs between 2 - 6 grams.  This one is a female as it doesn't have the ruby red throat patch. 

 

Ruby Throated Hummingbird measures 8 x 10 inches and is painted on Fredrix Archival Watercolour Canvas Board.

 

Many thanks to Rodney Campbell for the reference photo.

 

 

 

 

Poppy Fields ACEO in oils

Painted this a week or so ago - just had to wait until the paint dried before I could scan it.  I was trying out the Strathmore Canvas paper trading cards.  I will use them for oil landscapes but I still prefer my watercolour paper for the acrylic paintings.
