Green Headed Tanagers & Guitar

Completed this morning, sold this afternoon - that's the way to do it!  Despite the initial concept frightening me to death, this was surprisingly easy to execute and a lot of fun. The top bird is a composite of about five different photos, one of which was not even the same species of bird!

Derwent Inktense pencils & pigments on smooth watercolour paper. 

Now I have a gap of about ten days before the next commissioned dog portrait...time to squeeze in a bear perhaps?
