Description
Finally, the art class project since last year is finished: the Lesser Bird of Paradise (Indonesian: cendrawasih kecil, scientific: Paradisaea minor), according to the theme of 'Indonesia'. Though it was very tense finishing that in such little time and with so many other schoolwork, it should pay off well as this painting shall be on display in the local mall. Hooray!

Used a Phoenix brand canvas and oil paint, and an assortment of brushes. Used this image as reference. Took probably something like 20 hours, I guess, but the pressure to work quick at the end led to some screwed-up details such as the leaves, sadly. But oh well.

This is how I made this piece: Part I and Part II , in my blog.
