Slim Pickin's (Brazilian Cardinal On The Beach)

"Slim Pickin's"

11" x 14" oil on panel 

$1525

This oil painting of the Brazilian or Red-crested Cardinal is pretty true to my reference photo I took at Bellows Beach on Oahu.   There was sand inside the broken coconut shell, but evidently this fellow found something to nibble on in it as well.   On the tip of  the bird's beak are some sand particles.  The wind was blowing, which made its crest more flat against its head instead of standing up straight as in my reference photo of another cardinal shown below.

"Stellar Jay And Iris Garden"

                                                       9"x12" Acrylic on watercolor paper

This painting is of a suburb in Salt Lake City, Utah, and the garden is to the left of the owner's home nearby.   I added the Stellar Jay just for fun and for interest.

This is a close-up shot of the painting so you can see - for whatever reason- I applied the paint rather thickly on the paper.   It will still have to be matted and framed under glass like a regular watercolor.

Shipping is free within the USA.   Other countries, shipping cost will be $14.00

"Wake-up Songs"

                                                     9" x 12" Acrylic on canvas
                                                                $ 625


This house finch and his buddies use to wake me up in the early mornings with their cheerful songs.  One day I took a few photos of them on my patio and this is the resulting painting. I believe they were after the fruit type berries found on the palm trees.  May paint more of this bird in the future.   They were introduced to Hawaii  from California before 1870.
