Emu

Oh - this did make me smile! Fantastic way you have captured the slightly mad expression on an emu's face. I always remember Rod Hull and that darned emu attacking Michael Parkinson on TV. I think your emu looks as he would be up for a bit of that as well! Great work.

What a delightful painting, really good. Love it.

I love this ! it's great! what a comical look on it's face!

Thanks for the laugh. I have a photo from years back of one looking into my car with that same expression. Crazy birds. Ugly yet so appealing.

I like everything about this. The colours, textures and Emu's expression! Just great.

Very well done, quirky painting of a quirky animal.

Many thanks for all your kind comments ! I really enjoyed doing this one, after seeing them on Countryfile a few weeks ago. A face only a mother could love ?

Made me smile. Fabulous work and congrats on finding such an unusual subject.

Lovely texture and very appealing, beautiful eyes.
