This art started out as a photograph of a black-capped chickadee sitting on a cedar tree branch in the woods behind our home.
After several hours in Photoshop and Painter X this is the final result. Every pixel of this piece was re-painted (digitally) by hand to give the image a painted look. All of the miniature wild roses were created from scratch.

    I thought it wouldnt be too long before the old Chickadee”s got another outing.
    You should be the patron saint of Chickadee”s {actualy I can arrange that as I know the Duke of Edingburgh}
    Renee, Im no expert {god Im so modest :)} but did you use, Painter X, for this?
    Whatever you used it was well worth all the fuss.
    Beautiful as always.

    Really cool effect! I like both images and it’s cool that you can give one the painted effect and hang it in your house. Well done!

    Oh my goodness…. the incredible amount of work you’ve put in this Renee is amazing!! The close-up really shows that so well. This is such a beautiful image….you’ve really created the most wonderful work of art ….the original is a delightful photograph and now you’ve developed into a gorgeous art piece!! Fabulous!!!!!

  • Renee Dawson replied

    Thank you very much Holly! I try to load a cropped close-up so you can see the detail that I do when I’m working on these pieces. The regular size upload just doesn’t do them justice :) I am very fortunate in that I can get VERY close to these little darlings. This one was following me along the trail, flying from tree to tree, hoping I had some seeds in my pocket for him.
