Toucan-Still In Progress


Well, it has been a while since I have added a new post to my blog. I have been working on shows and found myself forgetting to blog my painting progress.

As you can see, I am still working on the toucan. This is a wonderfully colorful bird with lots of energy. I am working to provide that feeling in this painting.


Currently, I am working on the bird's feathers. Since the toucan's black feathers have little color variation, it will be a challenge to make them feel like feathers.

Notice, too, that I have slightly changed the position of the waterfalls. They also need a little work.


Summer is going so quickly. I hope this bird will be flying off the easel soon.
