*** First of all, paint a cage with an opened little door then paint something attractive something simple something beautiful something for the benefit of the bird Put the picture on a tree in a garden in the woods or in a forest hide yourself behind the tree silent immovable... Sometimes the bird arrives quickly but sometimes it takes years before it decides Don't be discouraged wait wait for years if necessary the rapidity or the slowness of the arrival of the bird doesn't have any relationship with the result of the picture | |
When the bird comes if it comes keep the deepest silence wait until the bird enters the cage and when it is in Close the door softly with the brush then remove one by the one all the bars taking care not to touch any feathers of the bird Then draw the portrait of the tree choosing the most beautiful branch for the bird paint also the green foliage and the coolness of the air the noise of the insects of the grass in the summer's heat and then, wait until the bird decides to sing If the bird doesn't sing it's a bad sign it means that the picture is wrong but if it sings it's a good sign it means that you can put your signature on the picture so you tear with sweetness a feather from the bird and write your name in a corner of the painting. *** |
