'EASTERN YELLOW ROBIN'
A pastel of a Eastern Yellow Robin. Slightly odd angle for photograph, however it is already framed and was hard to take the shot with the glass and not get a reflection. Painting taken from photographic image kindly supplied by Lesley Kiker from Victoia. Lesley does wonderful bird photos. This was my first ever bird pastel, done a few months back. I like my birds to be a painting not done like a photographic copy so soft pastels are perfect for painterly effects.
