Just started this new 8x10 watercolor but wanted to advise my blog followers that I have a Facebook page called Art in My World  that you can also Follow me on. The purpose of my Facebook site is to show other people interested in Art whats happening in my area art wise as well as Countries I have visited.
         I will be advising you of Videos and educational sites I have found on learning more about Art  and creating your own. Hopefully it can be a two way street where you can also advise me and my followers what you feel would benefit other Art Lovers!

This is another watercolor 8X10 in my bird series from photos taken in Tennerifee Zoo Canary Islands Spain.
 I loved his bright colors and his Mohawk hair but I did not get his actual Species ,if anyone knows it please let me know. He was in a large aviary with the parrots and McCaws. 

All in a Day's work

This is a 8x10 watercolor painting of a close up Hummingbird busily gathering nectar from some beautiful blue delphiniums. I started with an overall wash of lemon yellow to let the sunlight shine through everything. I often find it makes  my flowers  stand out but I do think it was a little overpowering in this piece. Beside regular watercolor I use my new inktense watercolor sticks in the delphiniums.The humming bird has some Faber Castell Pitt artist pen  used to outline and accent him.
