Cardinals on Grey Slate

My friend Resi asked me to paint cardinals on this piece of grey slate. 
She's going to hang it on a low flag stand by her front door. 

Here's how I started

I painted with acrylic which was a challenge for me because watercolor is my media of choice. I discovered that it was very blobby to use (difficult) but I could make changes which is not possible with watercolor.

  2. Thanks Janet - we're all cardinal fans here too - the bird kind and the baseball kind.
