I watched these baby swallows grow to bigger little swallows and then fly away. Other than very messy, it was wonderful to watch their mom flying back and forth to feed them. They were insatiable. This is yet another of those digital files I knew I had to paint &#8211; they are so adorable. I had to develop the confidence that I could paint soft feathers and a bird nest.  It&#8217;s not too bad! I also loved the fact that there is a &#8220;stand out&#8221; little swallow which posed itself to create the perfect focal point.  I couldn&#8217;t have planned it better.
