Description

I wanted something really tropical and colorful to add to my backyard bird series, so I decided on a the Ruby Throated Hummingbird! My neighbor has more luck catching these guys in their humming bird feeder then I do. But they also have more hummingbird plants too. They are indeed another fun bird to watch! Painted this over 3 days on and off. Really loved the reflective colors in the sunlight with humming birds. So I may have exaggerated them a little more in this image.

I went to look at yours, its wasn't bad! You used lots of really nice soft green colors!

TioTheBeetle In reply to charfade [2014-01-03 22:04:34 +0000 UTC]

Yeah thats the problem lol, that was an attempt to use stronger colors. Your proportions seem much more correct than mine as well.
