Featured Painting:
"Patriots"
Acrylic paint on an 8"x10" canvas panel--$125
Oh dear, I've gone over two days without an entry! It's been a busy couple of days but I am SO happy it's Friday again! I have been working on a self-portrait (with a lot of artistic license involved!) and have only had an hour or two each night to paint. It should be done tomorrow and then I will return to my valentine projects!
It is actually some pretty spectacular weather in Arizona this week. Icy cold nights and mornings, scraping the frost off the windshields and watching our breath as we drive to work, however the days are worth it! Crystal clear and mid 60's. Unbelievably warm for January! The geese have been heading south this entire month. I was on my way to see a movie tonight when I saw a grey heron winging it's way across the sky. They are so beautiful and it looks like they expend such little effort, barely flapping their wings up and down. I'm hoping to do some hiking this weekend and get more reference photos. Maybe you'll see some of them in creations over the next few weeks!
My featured painting is one I completed, I believe, last year titled "Patriots". I love how wonderfully colorful these Arizona birds are and they have no qualms about perching on the same hand together!
