Ruby-Throated Hummingbird
2019
9x12" acrylic on canvas
The hummingbirds reliably return to my garden every Mother's Day weekend and I painted this guy in the dead of winter, longing for spring.
It took many layers of blue and green to create the illusion of the hummingbird's iridescence. I thought the blossoms might be tedious, but they were a lot of fun! Photo reference: Ed McAskill You can purchase products featuring Ruby-Throated Hummingbird at my Zazzle store. SOLD. |
