I really thought a long time about how best to paint this robin's nest, complete with blue eggs. Using wax batik I was able to get the texture of both the twigs in the nest and the surface of the eggs. This painting was juried into the Woman's Art Club of Cincinnati Show, 2012.
The texture is very tactile and intriguing. A beautiful and impressive work.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I chose to use wax batik because I knew the rice paper would greatly enhance the texture of the branches in the bird's nest.
