Illustrative Wildlife Fine Art ,Watercolor Painting, Colored Pencil,Tropical Bird “Toucan in Papaya Tree” The Art of Nature, Fine Art by Mindy Lighthipe

This original painting of a Toucan in a Papaya Tree is a painting I demonstrated in my  book, The Art of Botanical and Bird Illustration .

I used colored pencil and watercolor pencil to do this painting on Fabriano Artistico Hot Press 300 lb watercolor paper. For the painting I used my sketches and photographs of a Rainbow Keeled Toucan and purchased a papaya tree that I planted and grew in my yard. Lucky for me I live in Florida and a local nursery had a good sized papaya tree I could do live drawings from. This is one of my favorite paintings and I throughly enjoyed every minute of composing it and painting.

Wildlife Painting, Bird, Nature, "JACOBIN HUMMINGBIRD" The Art of Nature, Fine Art by Mindy Lighthipe

This little hummer was just itching to be painted! I did this painting while leading an art tour to Costa Rica. The flower it is sitting on is a type of heliconia. The tropics have the most bizarre and beautiful shapes and colors in both flora and fauna.
