Lodging 12 x 12 Oil on Panel


I have been stalking a bird's nest at my mothers house.  The nest got disturbed and the next thing my mother found was 3 Robin's eggs on the ground.  They were broken, but I have them.  I looked into the nest and there was a Robin's egg, but also a speckled egg.  I told my mother to look in there and we couldn't figure out what happened.  I guess the Robin abandoned the nest and then squatters moved on in.  The next day I looked again and the Robin's egg had been kicked out and on the ground.  The speckled egg was there, but it was cold with no bird around.  Well I took both of them.  At least the nest is still there and I think either the squatters or the Robin will show up again.  I am hoping so.  Lucky for the birds I can't go over in the area because a rabbit has new bunnies in the pine straw in that area and I sure don't want to disturb that!

Antique Calligraphy Brush 20 x 16 Oil on Panel






Last fall someone gave me this wonderful Chinese calligraphy brush.  I kept it on a table just waiting to figure out what kind of setup to paint with it as the main object.  It all came together when I got the pottery made for me.  I incorporated the way I paint my nests with the way I painted the brush hairs.  It worked out and now I plan on doing another painting with brushes.  One of these days I will paint the marsh landscape that I took a photo of this last summer.  With that painting I plan to paint the grass with the same technique as the brush and nest so that it incorporates my style of painting.

On to the next brush painting that I have setup.  Hopefully I will get it started this weekend.

Residence 9 x 12 Oil On Panel

I think I am ready for spring now.  I know I am ready for the beach!  Remember tomorrow is Daylight Savings Time.  Now I have no excuse not to walk around the park after work.

Shelter 8 x 10 Oil on Panel

Since all of my blue/spa background bird's nests have sold I have painted 3 more.  This is the first one and I will post the others in the next week.  I should have this one at the gallery by Friday just in time for spring weather.
