These are not turkeys



OK, so I am a liar. I said I would post an image of turkeys number two no matter what state the painting was in but I am just not happy with how it has progressed and have wiped the canvas down. So I decided to upload an image of sunflowers I painted from life a couple months ago. I hope you enjoy.

By the way, doing small paintings of turkeys has created quite a challenge in that I do not like painting small details and would rather throw the small detail brushes in the garbage, but turkeys by nature have a lot of small detail that makes them very unique and beautiful birds. Maybe I will paint them a bit larger and fill the small canvas with a more close up turkey.
