Description
watercolor and gouache (mostly gouache), 6x8"A female sparrow feeds her chick.
This was a commission I finished back in October, but I've kept it offline for a while. The commissioner said it was going to be a present for his wife to celebrate their child who was born last November.

How adorable. ♥ I love the way you've drawn the weaved nest. The sparrow's feathers are really-well illustrated.

Beautiful painting, I like the realistic-yet-stylized rendering you do it very well. Goache also seems to be right up your street.

Very sweet. The baby in the nest has this expression on its face that perfectly matches the birds in my yard.

Yes... sadly though, I don't know how many of the other sketches you saw will make it through to finish. I might redraw them, though.

Adorable! The colours here are really lovely. And what amazing detail in the nest!
I like the story behind this too. That's such a sweet thing to do! I hope they hang it in their child's bedroom.

So pretty! I love how you fade the atmosphere in the leaves so naturally by omitting the line on some of them... very classy <3
