A new collection of works was just delivered to it’s premiere venue – here is a first peek at the paintings:
Evening Egret, 6in x 8in
watercolor on board with sterling silver & 24kt gold
A stunningly beautiful evening in a marsh as the sun was setting, all of the birds, insects, and other residents singing in chorus.. I sat watching egrets fishing for dinner. Being obsessed with their activity, the didn’t mind me sitting a short distance away from them.
Slightly Shy – Wolf Puppy, 5in x 7in
watercolor on board with sterling silver & 24kt gold
It has been a little while since I have painted a wolf pup.. this one was at the age where he no longer looks like a little bear cub.. He was incredibly curious and playful with his siblings, but for some moments, little unsure. ..thus the title, Slightly Shy.
Antisocial – Rabbit, 5in x 7in
watercolor on board with sterling silver & 24kt gold
This piece is a part of the previously posted rabbit collection. After completing these rabbit pieces, I’ve seen more rabbits frequenting the area.. which is rather odd I thought. ..but because of their visits, I have more planned rabbit paintings. Perhaps they wanted to be painted..
This collection is having it’s debut in Nags Head, NC at Seaside Art Gallery. Please click the thumbnails to view larger images of the paintings:
Your mini paintings are wonderful. A small art group In Frederic,WI has the Art Medley each year, we paint and make art on a 6 x 6 panel and donate for their fund raiser. As a painter painting small is a good challenge. Your egret is wonderful I paint the birds of Crex Meadows and paint the great blue heron. Your contrast on a white bird is very masterful and shows the delicate balance of light . Good luck on your show,and for me the duck stamps are calling.

There is a wolf symposium in Duluth this fall and the International Wolf center is participating.
