Here is a progression of this painting. I started with burnt sienna and did an underpainting of values first.

Oils on Canvas

Here is a painting of a sparrow hawk that hangs around our backyard in the summer time. Every once in a while we will hear a screaming and see him carrying something in his talons to a near by limb. He is beautiful but vicious I cannot decide if I like him because he is beautiful or hate him because he preys on the innocent baby birds and chipmunks.
