"Black-capped Chickadee"

"A Painting A Day" to Benefit The Lake County Haven

7" x 5" Watercolor on Paper

SOLD

For this subject I decided to return to a clean, more realistic painting style. I love painting birds because of the detail involved and chicadees are one of my favorite birds. They are cheerful, friendly birds. I have been able to watch them at the feeder in my yard, bouncing delightfully from branch to feeder, feeder to branch, to feeder again!

"When piped a tiny voice hard by,

Gay and polite, a cheerful cry,

Chic-chic-a-dee-dee! saucy note

Out of sound heart and merry throat."

                                     -Ralph Waldo Emerson
