Kingfisher



A rather talented photographer gave me permission some time ago to paint any of his photos. Today I decided an attempt at a rather dashing Kingfisher. I do prefer to paint from my own photos. although my photos are far from as detailed, it does feel more original when splashing paint around. I hope one day to complete a painting from field sketches but I feel Im some distance away.

    P.s it would be a big help to your followers if you do away with the word verification thing.
    Most bloggers got rid of it as it's hard for people to see if they want to comment ..
    If you don't know or want to,, write me at my email .. it's on the forum..
