Secretary Bird

I've been pretty busy lately so I've not had much time to finish any more bird paintings.

Here's a few half finished pieces anyway, hopefully I'll work on them a bit more over Easter.
This ones a secretary bird I've been working on.

 

I've also been teaching myself Rhino recently and made a whisky glass just so I could learn a few of the basics.

Silver Cheeked Hornbill

Here's my latest bird painting. This ones a Silver Cheeked Hornbill from East Africa.
I'm still pretty undecided on what the final bird will be but some of the African birds are pretty amazing so it might be a Spoonbill or a Marabou Stork.

Bird Paintings

I got quite obsessed with drawing birds lately and started a series of paintings which I'm hoping to get prints made. I was planning on doing just the 4 but I can see myself getting carried away with it...

Belated Update

This blog's become a bit redundant lately but I have kept up with drawing and painting.
I think for the most part I've become pretty critical of my art lately and have thought there wasn't much worth posting.

Anyway I need to kick that habit and just keep posting so here's a few things I did over the last year.
