Jewel of the Emerald Forest

This is my latest work and the second Blue Jay that I've painted. In this painting I wanted the forest to be an intregal part of the image so that the viewer would feel like they are actually in the Emerald Forest and to get a sense of what the blue jay feels. In the future I will be doing more paintings that incorporate the Emerald forest. Possibly a series.

Hope you enjoy it.
