“R” is for Raven for #charsartclass with #birdsindecember2022 I painted this bird with mostly only a palette knife and a small brush towards the end for finer details. This way I could concentrate on values and building form. I love the mark-making and texture you can get with a palette knife..so freeing and so much faster to paint! I painted this in under an hour! 🤩😎 I also loved the way my palette looked when I was done so I took another piece of paper and pressed the palette onto it, moving it around a couple of times and love the result! Now I have a fun background to use for another piece! 🆒 . . . . . #bird #birds #birdart #birdartist #birdpainting #paletteknifepainting #teachingartist #jenniferlindermanart #oaklandartist #expressiveart #raven #ravenart #ravenpainting #corvid #corvidart #corvidpainting #painting #highflowacrylics #mixedmediapaper @strathmoreart #noblack #paynesgrey #white #create (at Oakland, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmb2uXCLwSD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
