Hello hivers, an happy Tuesday to you all! Another warm day here and my furry friends Nanny (the mom) and Bimba (the daughter) are sleeping hard in a corner of my backyard, under the plum tree. A lot of birds are flying around the plants and the trees since this morning, but my cats looks too tired to focus their attention to them. 😁 This morning, like I use to do every day, I woke up soon to work with my brushes and colors. I started a new oil on paper, but in a pause from that piece I decided to have a little fun painting a freaky bird, just to see how it could work on a scrap of paper. You can see the final result in the following pic: ![DSCN0437.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/Eoc9vrMV3Qcu6NhifLxy2Rzs2jFF8XgtFWVvKuEmazFgn4csDth44zPd87UzjLiZLKv.JPG) It was just a sort of exercise for my hands and for my imagination, but I like the result and maybe I'll paint a similar kind of bird in one of my next painting. It's an oil colors painting on a scrap of around 300 gsm paper and, like I use to do when I show you a new artwork or exercise, I took some pics while I was painting it on my small working table so you can see the process too: ![DSCN0430.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EoK5mKPKC4NZ36P2Weq1vWiYL7XpsiJpRKwLX4ku9aYc6pC1xV4CBp2XdX4QcKoLxYV.JPG) ![DSCN0431.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/Eo8TJzhR4FMKGY1fzbvfgiPDnympmCbqUsXA5fpWnRQmkWbFcdJHLgu3khUHsXGX5zD.JPG) ![DSCN0432.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EoGxumdML4A9BoPLhTeVEPXSAEVoAivU2m9Ur1ugNWSYzAzKafRKNLfNEDLZ1d1fV9A.JPG) I hope you like it and, if you want, stay tuned to see my next new artwork! See ya soon and stay safe, Silvia
