I work at a coffee house in the mornings. It’s great because I get to know a lot of the people who come in for their morning drinks. Many of the customers have gotten to know that I love to paint, so they often ask me what projects I’m working on. A gentleman asked me if I’ve ever painted a quail before. I said that I haven’t, but I’d love to try. Within a few days I brought the painting in to show him. He instantly claimed it!

Almost done, a little more work on the feathers

All done
