Happy birthday! I just love this bird! I’m just beginning my art (painting and collage with mixed media) adventure. I’m sitting here visiting my favorite blogs while I wait for layers to dry. I’m so bummed I missed the exchange, but look forward to seeing what everyone has created.
Love your colour bird

G’day.
This bird swap is such a lovely idea. I found out about it from Urban Debris’ website. You are such an inspiration, good on you. And the wall hanging is gorgeous – love the colours and the texture – is it canvas?
Thanks for sharing.
