Struggling with new painting

As I stated in my first message, I need to paint more.  I hope to gradually get more dissiplined and get more paintings completed.  I have actually been painting but have had a couple of failures so didn't have anything to post.  I finally decided I need more planning on this painting so I did a 5" x 7" sketch to work out the the depth problems and get the colors worked out better.  I am starting to experiment with acrylic so it is my plan to get this scene done in acrylic soon.  But first I have a painting that has been in the works since the first of the year so will be working on that, a Black-backed woodpecker.
