Chickadee, Watercolor paint, Prismacolor pencils, Windsor and Newton gouache on 5x7 strathmore cold press paper I've been wanting to do more studies of birds, and I thought a chickadee would be a good place to start again. I wanted to see how effectively I could paint one in at least a semi-realistic sense, and I feel like I learned a good bit about lighting and how to paint feathers from it. I think the eyes came out pretty well on this too. Process photos are available on my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/85381172
