Variable Blog Posts

I’ve been struggling to get writing again. After the last few long, slightly gloomy posts, it felt like I’d have to have a lot to say before it was worth writing.

However, I’ve since decided that there’s no reason these posts need to stick to one format. So here are a couple of process pictures of my recent sunbird painting. It’s of a variable sunbird, which frequently flits around right outside our dining-room window. A very small and cheerful bird, just like this post.

It’s now hanging in our dining room, where it can be visited by its living inspiration right outside the window. I’ve already started work on the next bird painting, which is of a gorgeous bush-shrike (the ‘gorgeous’ is actually part of its name, believe it or not!).
