Rainbow Birds: Blue

Art Prints
The Eastern Bluebird is the penultimate painting in the Rainbow Birds series. I came up with the idea for this series while watching the birds at the feeder outside my window. I noticed one day that the feeder attracted birds of all the colors of the rainbow. I thought, how amazingly beautiful nature is!
I completed a series of individual studies of each of the birds, drawn and painted to scale of the actual birds, then worked at a composition featuring them all together. The series will feature the following song birds: cardinal, baltimore oriole, gold finch, ruby-throated hummingbird, eastern bluebird, indigo bunting, and purple martin.

The indigo bunting and purple martin will be featured in the next and final piece in the series.

Great for anyone who loves birds and the beauty of nature! The series make a great set of greeting cards. Get prints and greeting cards at my Fine Art America page.

Rainbow Birds: Yellow and Green

Art Prints
This is the second watercolor in the Rainbow Birds Series, featuring the American Goldfinch and a female ruby-throated Hummingbird.

The watercolor pieces in the series (like the one shown here) are slightly different in style than the final large piece, which will be done in ink on clayboard, so I believe the whole series could be collected. Great for anyone who loves birds and the beauty of nature! You can view different print options at the Rainbow Birds: Yellow and Green page. The next piece will feature Blue.
