Cardinals in the Trees

Today's piece is titled Cardinals in the Trees, and is a new acrylic on 12x12" canvas. This painting features three female cardinals set amongst red maples somewhere in northern Minnesota. Working in this brown and red color palette is a nice lesson in camouflage. These birds may be beautiful but they are difficult to see with their muted feathers. Good for them, the vibrant male cardinals will have to work harder to find them. This piece was featured recently on my dailypaintworks site, and may be purchased there if still available. Have a great week!
