Anyone Home?

This is “Anyone Home?” -a mixed media watercolor painting done over vintage letters and envelops from the 1950’s. I had a great time painting my bird and worm series. This is one of the few I have left. It is 8″x10″ and is framed in a distressed barn wood frame with white acid free matting.Continue reading “Anyone Home?”

Small Bird Sales

Thanks for a good show Charlotte! We could not have had a more beautiful weekend, I had forgot what it was like to do a show in nice weather. Lots of prints found new homes and some of my little birds, a couple worms and a little mouse got new families. Every show seems toContinue reading “Small Bird Sales”

But the whole journal stays blank if you never get past the first page. So here it goes theContinue reading “For the Birds”

Piping Piper

Here is another commission piece, my piping piper!

New Painting

I promised more pictures of my sketches once I had worked on them more. So here is a new painting. It is 16″x20″ done with watercolor over vintage recipe cards. This is just an iphone photo, but I wanted to share!

New Sketches

I have been working on some new sketches. They are still rough, but I thought I would share them. They take a little imagination to see the end result, but I am happy with where they are going!

Birds in the Snow

We had a small snow shower last week. The very pretty, but melts soon kind that causes very few inconveniences:) But I could not resist taking some photos of the birds that were swarming around my bird feeder. I might have had to stand in the snow for 30-40mins with a cold, wearing pajamas andContinue reading “Birds in the Snow”
