Painting Butterflies 2006-11-07 20:03:44 I just started a miniature painting of a mourning cloak butterfly, nymphalis antiopa, last night. I have had an interest in painting a variety of butterfly pieces for quite a while. I believe I made some similar comments on the website a number of years ago. Many ideas and very little time. :/
I’ve had so [...] Read more:Painting
Bald Eagle Watching 2006-11-03 19:22:44 I went for a short walk the other day and saw an adult American bald eagle soaring overhead. It was soaring fairly low, which surprised me a little. There are quite a few of them that appear to be nearby residents and frequent the local area throughout the year. Their numbers [...] Read more:Watching

Wolf Pup Sketch 2007-01-31 16:50:52
This is a little wolf puppy sketch that I am painting. He was very cute . He became very interested in eating the log (and then spitting out the not-so-tasty pieces of wood) while I was studying and photographing him. The painting is about 8×10.

Sketch for a Miniature Landscape 2007-02-02 00:08:05
This is a little thumbnail sketch for a miniature landscape painting I have started working on. It is a little western landscape (or waterscape ).

Redtail Hawk Sketch Completed 2007-02-03 19:18:05
This is the final redtail sketch. I’ve decided to paint it as a 5×7. There seems to be a lot of movement and action in this pose of the hawk.

Snowy Owl Sketch 2007-02-12 14:49:23
This is a new little painting that I’m starting. It is a female snowy owl, so she has some nice black barring and pattern. She also had a little bit of an attitude when I was able to study and photograph her , which I think will look nice in the painting.
