Bird Nest, Day 9

Daily Paintworks
As you can imagine, I think about bird nests and related objects quite a bit of the time--making
thumbnail sketches and trying to come up with another way to present the
same subject.
One of my ideas was to paint a gold (as in the real metal) nest, but I am not sure I could do it.
Afterall, I don't have a gold nest to observe.
So---I decided to try a gold egg first. No, I also don't have a gold egg, but it seemed less daunting
to try to make one up. Since I know it's supposed to be gold, it looks like gold to me,
I'm not sure it will look like gold to others.
