Art Post - Woodpecker

[radiantfracture]

This one was hard. This is the second version I did. The first one came out so lumpy and messy I was worried I'd never paint again. The second one was like that too, until I remembered that paintings always feel like that halfway through.

Pileated woodpeckers are gorgeous in coloration, but super dinosaur-looking close-up.




ETA: I know the movement (smell?) lines are super silly, but I ran out of blue paint so I can't fix them.

I really like this painting just as it is.

Thank you.

They ARE super dinosaurs! One flew into our backyard and I was thinking exactly that. Look at you, you beautiful dinosaur, you, inching up our tree!

The painting is beautiful.

Ah, cheers.

I've never seen one around here, though I have seen a red-shafted woodpecker, a much less T Rex sort of being.

I love this! Its lines are not silly. They just looked radiant to me.
