Eternity

I finally went to pick up this piece which had been in a members show for the Hampton Art League. It was so much fun to make! I've had this cast of my hand for two years and couldn't figure out how to use it but this all came together. The bird is much more interesting in person because he has lots of texture in his feathers and I used interference colors on the black base. Now let's see.....what else can I use the hand for?

These Taxes Are For The Birds

If you wonder where I am, like millions of other Americans, I'm scrambling to get my taxes ready to send next week. So, between that and paying bills, I've been busy. I just hate it when I don't get to paint or draw.

So, while I've been working away at my computer, I have a perfect view of my birdfeeder. It's interesting to notice all the different birds that show up. What is this little guy? A blackbird? He was much smaller than a huge black bird that cruised in, so I'm not sure.

Well, I'll be back soon....with much less money, I'm afraid.
