I just added this new print of my ruby-throated hummingbird to my shop . . . with Spring well and truly here in Toronto, it was time to add a little colour!

I've been experimenting on "hand-aged" watercolour paper as an extension on my series of drawings - which in turn were inspired by antique and vintage prints. I've been a bit obsessed with hummingbirds lately, and inspired by an orchid plant I specifically bought for this painting. I'm just pleased I was able to keep it alive long enough to paint - the last one we had died in record time (turns out they don't need much water).
