Californian partridge with floral adorned shrub

I have enjoyed painting a series of birds. I am attracted to birds with a certain body shape and the partridge is one of those birds. I enjoy encorporating detailed patterns into my work and the floral adorned shrub and feathers on the partridge are examples of this which has been made possible by using a posca pen onto to the acrylic paint. I also enjoy pastel colours and have used mainly pastels for the colour pallette for this work.
