Song Bird

Description

Claude Monet is often quoted as saying, “I would like to paint the colors of the rainbow and the beauty of the birds’ songs.” I’m fortunate to have so many songbirds fluttering by my studio windows. I often keep a window open so I can hear them while I paint. After several attempts, this piece finally came together. I used two watercolor techniques: wet-on-wet and glazing. Wet-on-wet involves applying paint to a wet surface, allowing the colors to flow and blend naturally, creating soft edges and delicate layers. Glazing, on the other hand, uses multiple thin layers of paint to build depth and enhance the richness of the plumage. I’m thrilled to use Canon LUCIA PRO ink, which ensures vibrant colors, smooth tones, and sharp details. The prints are made on Fabriano cold press watercolor paper, a textured surface that closely mimics my original paintings.
