Goldfinch

Close up
Oil on 6x6 canvas panel.

This is my contribution to The Yellow Challenge at DPW posted by Abbey Ryan .
Abbey gave quite a discourse on the color yellow. Check it out at the Challenge.

I really love to paint these bright little birds. The goldfinch's favorite food is thistle seed. The purple thistle patch where they hang out is a great complement to the goldfinch! God has the ultimate artistic eye!

The board was first toned with a reddish acrylic. It looked so good to me as I was paintinig, I wound up letting it serve as much of the background.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
