Birds


One thing I find difficult to draw is birds. I am listening to the birds sing right now. In fact, we have a purple finch nesting on a beam over the back porch, and I think it's the dad who is making all the racket. This reminded me that it would be good to practice drawing them. I think I will take out my sketchbook right now.

i too find birds so difficult! every time i have to draw/paint one, it's like starting from scratch. especially if they are flying.
for things like this i always miss the museum of nat'l history in nyc. there's nothing like seeing the real thing.
but your birds here are adorable!
