This bird consists of 2 distinct tones and getting the form and light correct is going to call for a lot of determination and patience. Looking at Day 1 I could see that the dark tone was too blue for the effect I am seeking in this painting. I like the boldness of the green leaves though they are too crude at the moment.
Anyway, the painting is progressing.
