Christmas Robin

Birds
10×12 Oil Painting on Canvas

This one was a piece that I was commissioned to paint as a present for somebodys loved one at Christmas. Reference was used for the Robin itself and the background was left to artistic licence. I kept this painting fairly loose in order for it to have a more natural effect and for the bird fit in well with its surroundings. Thought was given as to whether to add falling snow, and as much as this may have added more to the scene, I also knew that leaving this detail out would of taken nothing away from the overall effect.
