Open your wings to the open skyThis topic actually had me quite stumped. Usually I have a few ideas and one just stands out, but this time nothing jumped out at me - I even asked for ideas from multiple friends and family members! Perhaps it is because this week's challenge is a contest - see Illustration Friday for details on voting. Since I have been painting a lot of birds lately, here are some more! Gouache on Arches paper.
I put my portfolio stuff aside this week to work on this - so hopefully I can finish my second piece by next week!

This is really pretty. Your birds are very good. Nice blue and soft painting style.
Lovely painting and lovely concept, the babies don't look too convinced though, kids these days you just can't get through to them:)
love it! so cheery, wonderful colors, as per your usual! :))
Wonderful illustration. Love your birds!
very cute, nice bright color! i also love your 'blues' post below.
You create lovely birds, Kelly. You are always so good with expressions, it adds a lot to the illustration. Beautiful blue birds...
Thanks so much for your comments on my blog. I think on this piece I did a better job at capturing the characters as they were first introduced in "Moon." I'm going to redo "Juggle" one of these days, that one did no work so well... :-)
Oh! this is adorable!
The blue color is gorgeus.

like the colors u have used and there soft tonal quality. the babies look like they think mom is a bit whacked and would rather just hang out in the nest.
i mean really who wants to learn to fly when u got a nice warm nest
Oooh they're the cutest things. I love how bright your colors are.
lovely!
Nice work as usual, Kelly!
Sweet and lovely. I think you did wonderfully with the topic! :)
I love the non-chalant look of the fledgling on the right. Too funny and sweet!
this is so lovely...the expression of the flying bird is so cute, it looks so happy!
Absolutely beautiful! Great idea Kelly!
