What a wonderful birdhouse. I love the detail in your tree!

I think this is charming just the way it is. If you wanted perfect you could have taken a photo of it. :))
I have found that Birds seem to like their homes a little weathered before they use ours. Maybe it makes them feel it isnt a trap or something.

Very nice Laure, I especially like the roof and the multiple colors.
Good job. Thanks again

I love how you captured the shadows on the bird house...beautifully done!

Oh, I hope you get some residents, Laure! It's lovely! Looks like a nice house for some cute birds. Your colors are beautiful here, and the shadows are wonderful.

Love it! The shadows are my favorite part!

Fun sketch!! Makes me want to go outside and look for birds.

I love the roof and also all the beautiful shades of white and shadow that play across the front. It sparkles.

Oh, the shadows are splendid!!!!

I think that counts for plein air. My take on that is you are drawing something from the natural environment while IT (not neccesarily YOU) is in it's actual environment.

I like this pic. I love the shadows flitting across the birdhouse and yes, that copper roof looks terrific too. The wonkiness? What wonkiness? I see some character.

Laure, this is just gorgeous. I love this painting. It's one of my favorites ever. Happy and beautiful... You really capture the patina in the roof too.

Lovely shadows playing on the birdhouse and yes, the rusted roof is awesome!

Lovely! Especially the promise of new leaves in the lenghtening shadows - you always seem to have such fresh and lively shadows! Love the copper roof, too, and would like to know what you used if you have time to post them.
