Hummingbird - Take 2

I started this one back in the middle of Thanksgiving. After drawing it out and starting the bird, it got put aside. It was my main project this week.

#158 - Hummingbird In Flowers - 8" x 10" - paper - alt palette (both blue & yellow) 
I did not fuss with this one nearly as much as the first time back in October. Plus, the values are better in this one. I am so glad for the breakthrough over Thanksgiving. I just feel a bit more in control of an important aspect of painting!

This one will get another try, since I want to figure out better paint strokes for the flowers. There's also the issue of masses of shapes versus painting the individual flowers and I'd like to explore and play with that.
