The other one I really do like.  I could have done better but it was my second try at a bird....finished and framed and now hangs in the office.

Benji...I both love and hate this one. Benjamin belongs to @parrot-post please go and follow her lovely birds!

A very in progress portrait of Hibble

This one finished! May warbler, very proud of actually. Framed and now lives at my mother's house

This is a (very) closeup of a bluejay in winter, I’m “working on it” File it under “Eventually”

Great god almighty, this one.  I worked on him for over a year (2016-2017) and STILL he wouldn’t turn out the way I wanted him to.  Just LOOK at his feet, he looks like he’s wearing orange booties.  But I finished it...finished in this case means I can’t do anything else with it without sinking into a murderous rage, so....I call it Done.  Stan the Disapproving Seagull.

There are tons of mistakes in it I can see from here, but altogether, not bad.  This was the one that made me decide I liked painting birds and wanted to focus solely on those. 

A very early attempt at a macaw.  I still have this picture and eventually I will return to it to try and make it better.  I don’t even have a reference picture for it.  I have...so many unfinished pictures, lol.  Eventually I will get to them all. 

This was a closeup of the first painting I did of Hibble, sometime in 2016.  Mah precious bebbe.

March 2016.  I can’t do water, but this was my first attempt at it.
