Painted on Fabriano Artistico 90lbs hot pressed paper from Italy with a size 0 and a size 3 round watercolour brush.
First paint the entire inside with a dilute wash of bluey yellowy green – this is up to you – just make it pale and varied for interest.
While still damp paint in darker greens and yellows and his feet. I painted his beak a mix of pale yellow green with a touch of brown and the cere above his beak is blue as he is a boy!
Then add deeper colour to shape the budgie.
Add the dark brown/blue mix to paint the black and white patterned parts of his back and side wings and feathers.
