A change to Watercolour and Gouache

​I've been inspired by a pair of Tawny Frogmouths that visit the Mango Tree by the deck.  So instead of my usual acrylic paintings I picked up a beautiful piece of watercolour paper and painted the background first.  I love the translucent nature of watery paints and when applied wet on wet I love the way the colours run into each other to create new colours.  I finished the birds off in Gouache.
