I love painting robins. We have plenty of them around here. They are feisty little birds and will follow a gardener around, waiting for you to disturb insects or dig up a juicy worms. Maybe it’s their closeness to us that makes them Britain’s favourite bird? This one is a little windswept. He was eating seeds I’d put out on a bench in the park. He is a watercolour painting on 10×7 inch Bockingford paper. He’s in the shop.
