    Thanks everyone! I found that I enjoy painting more when I do small pieces like this. Maybe I don't have patience for big paintings, so I think I'll do more of these.

    Ruby-Throated Hummingbird Hello all. I completed this painting today. It's nice painting green when outside it is white and very cold. I did this on masonite, which is a bit unusual, since I've been mostly painting canvases recently. Thanks for looking! 8"x10" acrylic on masonite

    Thanks! I know the drakes are quite something to pull off, but for me the hens might be more difficult. I always find it hard to paint a bird that's almost all one color!

    Work in Progress This is the start of a painting which will hopefully soon include a Tennessee Warbler. I'm still wanting some more middle and background aspen leaves, though.

    Pileated Woodpecker in Snow Haha Thanks! I wasn't going to quit posting paintings. I just don't do that many of them. This one is from 3 years ago. I think the color is a bit off, but it's not too far.

    Thanks everyone! I'd post more sketches, but I seem to go to painting whenever I start something.

    Thanks, all! I always try to show atmosphere. On the other hand, the flat look of back lighting really appeals to me for some reason. Sid, I originally had a different pose for the warbler, but it looked wrong to me. I actually used a wing mount for reference, but it took me a long time to...

    Thanks. Yes, I spend time working with the background. I do very few portraits. Not that I'm against them, I'm just more into the 'birdscape' compositions.

    Since I'm new here I thought I'd post some of my work. I paint acrylic on canvas and sometimes masonite. This is a painting of a Merlin in winter I completed a month ago.
