    Another bird.....oh wow, ain't that ecxiting?

    Yes I know everyone has been awaiting for another bird. Try to keep calm.
    This one is a bit looser, I was going for colors rather than detail. And yeah, it's a real bird. I included the reference as proof.

    The last time I kept an open mind,
    my brain fell out and the dog grabbed it.
    Now it's full of dirt, toothmarks, and dog slobber.

    Beautiful colours George - I might not have believed you if you hadn't posted the ref.
    June.

    Oh God of homeless things, look down
    And try to ease the way
    Of all the little weary paws
    That walk the world
    today.

    Flipping us the bird again, George?

    That's really nice. I love the choice because of the exciting colors and how you handled them.

    What kind of bird is it? I tried to look it up and didn't get a hit on one that looked like this one. So either the species has a broad range in appearance and I saw one of them, but this picture is of a real beauty.

    Good to see you back. Hope you're well.

    A pretty one. Actually I don't know, I found the pic somewhere and had originally planned to make a gimp palette out of it.

    A dog bit me once. After three days of agony, it died.
