Harper Lee from To Kill a Mockingbird
Painted this one after working all day so I am spent. Midnight and I can't get a good picture, Will try again tomorrow. Knocked 5 states off the list with this one.
Here's some information about the Mocking Bird: The mockingbird was recognized as the official state bird of Arkansas in 1929. Northern Mockingbirds have extraordinary vocal abilities - they can sing up to 200 songs, including the songs of other birds, insect and amphibian sounds, even an occasional mechanical noise.
