This picture was an experimental piece for me. The background was done by laying down color and placing fresh green leaves in the paint, then allowing them to dry for about 14 to 20 hours. The hardest part is not peeking. After the paint has dried you remove the leaves. The result is all kinds of fun imprints in the paint. The bird is a finch and was photographed in Indiana. We were there for a wedding this summer and I spent a morning with my aunt. She has several bird feeders in her backyard that a wide variety of birds visit. I had great fun taking pictures of them.
