Rub a dub dub- a bath for dirty birds! On my shed roof, the metal has sagged and created a bird bath that has been empty for the last 3.5 rainless months. But now... the rain is back, the bath is full and the old crowd is back!
A party of goldfinches (the yellow shape on the top left is a leaf).
Oh isn't this fluffy one just dear?
"Hey, everybody turn around and smile-she is taking our picture!"
Don't these two look like they are getting all spiffed up for a party?
This one just makes me laugh! Oh! What a fluffy one! I imagine the bird in front is saying, "Don't worry I got you covered! I can't believe she is taking your photo!"
These little guys (and gals) inspired me and I decided to do a quick ink sketch on watercolor paper.
Here I added in more gray tones with watercolor
Finished sketch with more watercolor added.
And here is a close-up of our very cute model!
I would like to thank my model above and I apologize for making you floofier than you really are!
Wishing you all a happy, splashy, sunshiny, feathery day!
