A bit of surprise sunshine meant a trip outside. So glad we went! Another great surprise--a Belted Kingfisher! #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

A grey, brown, and orange bird stands and sings over his shoulder. He has been described as "really cute"

Okay, this one has much simpler shapes! And i think I'm getting better at the proportions. 😁 The whole face should be pink, but i messed that up by trying to add shadows and there was no going back! 😅

The details and how everything is blended so smoothly (and with such apparent control) is incredible to me

Used this lil fellow for some #watercolor #marker #practice. I find the feathers that are just grey and black super hard to do to my liking...

First of all, beautiful (and beautiful), but specifically the glow of the light coming through the curtains, holy hell

Can't seem to get the proportions exactly down, but here are a few more iterations on the #design. Gonna experiment some more with simpler lines somehow? Maybe? Any advice out there

A little #wip (can you tell what it is?) and a new attempt at a tree design inspired by ballman's tree i quote-posted earlier.

I can't get the tree to be more 3D with my skills! 😅😁

I know i already told you this but i was looking back at this again today and i just love it. It's SO a dancing tree.

I want to hang this on my wall or put it on a shirt.

Me: i love all the colorful birds, they're so fun to sketch! Yay colorful birds!

Also me seeing a grackle: 🥹

Today's #BirdOfTheDay request is for #OddAngle shots. Here's a #grackle looking out over the National Mall from a perch above the U.S. Botanical Garden in April 2025.

🤔 #BirdOfTheDay for #Halloween Eve is #OddAngles...

...and when you catch a Black-headed Grosbeak at an odd angle you get a sweet birb flame job. 🔥🪶🌿

When a male Black-headed Grosbeak tries to lean way over to reach the suet cage you get a hotrod flame job up the back. Squint harder.

This tree is dancing and it's pretty good

Another tree? Yup, another. Feel like this might be the last one before the next open air session. I feel like I've practiced the skill enough to be able to paint the trees I see now reasonably well enough. No idea what I'll paint next yet.
