Hi Everyone!
I hope you're all having a good weekend! π
I've had some good creative days and the other day I finished a new painting of one of my favorite birds, the Blackbird.
The finished painting measures 20 x 30 cm, and here it is;
The inspiration for this painting were all the Blackbirds that have returned to Norway recently for Spring π Every evening I've been hearing them singing from the tree tops and it's such a beautiful sound. π
The painting took me around 7 hours and the colors I used were;
- Ivory Black
- Raw Umber
- French Ultramarine Blue
- Turquoise Clear
- Permanent Rose
- Vermilion
- Golden Ocher
- Windsor Yellow
- Titanium White
All the other color mixes were made from these 9 colors.
I hope you like the painting!π
Love, inspiration and happy painting,
Marie
