Lisa's Gift

About 30 years ago I visited my daughter in Las Vegas.  We went window shopping in a nearby mall.  I spotted 2 small ceramic birds that I liked.  For my following birthday I received them as gifts.  I was surprised & pleased.  So today I decided to paint one to see if it could look like ceramic.  I also wanted to paint with gray tones.  I added a few highlights but the overall light was generalised & there wasn't much contrast.  I will paint another one in different light.  I do like the results of this bird anyway.  Sweet.
