A Yellow Feathered Visitor

A Yellow Feathered Visitor
23 x 30 cm
watercolor on paper


I painted this from a photo reference provided by my talented friend Cristina Mihailescu (see her beautiful works here) .  I believe this bird is a Lesser Goldfinch .



This will be my last post before Christmas. I wish you a blessed holiday season.

African Violets

 African violets sketchbook page I painted this sketch slowly, over a few day's time.  I use my sketchbook to experiment towards improving my skills although I seem to always find myself in a hurry to finish the sketches. It took my African Violets over two years to bloom, I felt compelled to capture this achievement! The flu is making the rounds around my household once more, I hope everyone else is well!

It's Not Just For Guacamole

It's Not Just for Guacamole watercolor on paper 35.5x51cm.  I hope everyone's New Year is off to a great start! I started this painting last year and set it aside for a while.  I worked from a cell phone image I took while preparing breakfast. My work as it progressed, below... My favorite way to eat avocado is on toast with a poached egg, I sketched it after Christmas. It keeps me full until lunch time.
