Santos and Bird of Paradise
This painting was completed some time ago and decided to post it as I continue to work on more current canvases. As I am not good at photography you can see I tried to take the photo outdoors and some of the grass shows. The wood carved figure or Santos came from the Philippines. I found it in a Sears store in a box among others that the ad claimed were dug up there I dug through the box and settled on this fellow. . It is probably a religious figure but I thought of it as a piece of art. I liked the lines of the figure, the hat he wears and the fact he looked like a man of prayer. I like the colors in the painting and that it appears a little impressionistic.
