I've been told that all the birds I paint seem to be fat. I just thought they were all big boned. Today, I give you two birds that might have an actual chance of flight. Two Western Scrub Jays. They are fun to paint with their blue and browns, This one has found a perch on a dead branch and is looking back over his shoulder.
This picture is approximately 5x7.

This second bird did look a bit more haggard in the original, but I don't think I did him any favors in this picture. Again he is looking over his shoulder. I'm told that his head doesn't look like it fits on his body properly. I didn't really think about it when I drew it. Its how the picture was.
Both of these birds were fun to paint, and I will be doing more birds. I've found a website full of great pictures of just about all species of North American birds, so expect to see more in the future.
This picture is approximately 4x6.
