Description
This is part of a series of 26 postcard-size bird paintings I did a few years ago. One of my field guides describes purple finches as looking like "sparrows dipped in raspberry juice". which I think is about right!

Thanks to both of you, Stephen and Carole! I think the dry-brushing helped with the efeect of fluffy feathers.

Love the color of this Finch you've painted, soft and delicate. Thanks for comment on my painting called "Venus of the Pink Rose ".

Lynn, you are SO talented. You really capured the softness and fluffy quality of his feathers so professionally. I love your palette here. Watercolor is a difficult medium to work in and you have mastered it. Thanks for comments on The Chateau Frontenac. Its in Quebec City and can be viewed from practically everywhere, in that town. I painted it in 1978, but might do a new version, as like you I love to work in series. Have a great weekend, your Canadian pal, Carole
