Boob, Boobs, Boobies

Ok, the title is a little misleading.  I kinda did that on purpose.  Every time I put a title like that I get a massive amount of hits to that posting.  I am sure the same will happen to this one.

But what I actually have is a Blue Footed Boobie.  Fantasticly weird bird.   He was fun to paint, and fun to research, I'm gonna keep going with painting odd, different things that most people wouldn't paint.  This one is a start.   Anyway, he's fun and funny.

I struggled with two things on this painting, and if I had to do it again I would change a few things.  First, I would put some green in the lower half of the sky.  Make it look like very far away hills.  His right foot just gets lost.  I don't really like that at all.  Secondly, I would barely tap in the shadow that is under him.  I got a bit carried away with it in this painting.

I might just have to paint this guy again just to make those changes, or maybe I should do a whole series of paintings of boobies.    I'll think about it.  At any rate,  there is a video that goes along with this one.  You can check it out below.  Thanks of the quick read, and the view.
