Blyth's Tragopan

Sometime last year, we went to the San Diego Zoo. There we saw a most strikingly beautiful bird: Blyth's tragopan. I decided I wanted to do a painting of it and, more than a year later, I have finally done so.





There were two of them at the zoo. One was running and one was roosting.
I wanted to do a more stylized portrayal, but it was a bit beyond my skill level ... Maybe next time.
