I love the personalities you've given the birds, Maureen. Also, I share your quandary about the sometimes competing needs of fashion vs environment. It's hard to find a balance.
I love this so much! I love birds and also have a love/hate relationship with clothing in general. Fashion isn’t as important as comfort, but I would like to look nice.
I’d love a print but probably will have to save my pennies!
Beautiful, and beautifully done. I especially appreciate the descriptives. Those who, what and whys gave me a chance to go back and admire aspects that I missed. I keep forgetting to enlarge pictures, and then wonder how I missed so much. Thanks.
Oh, thanks for zooming in. Yes, interesting how I was just listening to a YouTube video about how the masters used less detail to create stunning effects, the narrator was talking about the French artist Delacroix specifically, but I crave intimate details in my work and I’m glad I thought to encourage you to take a deep dive. Thanks Lee!
Ah, perfect! It was one of those instances where my paint went in the wrong direction and so I started to fix it and the next thing I knew I had a face! So many gorgeous Summer songbirds I might need a bigger canvas! xo
I am looking forward to the summer bird fashion party! I love the details, and the stories of “why these birds” makes it even more endearing. Your creative style is wonderful!
Perfectly put Neural. Yes, those Doc Martens were a fun twist! Thank you for reading and your encouraging words. I’m painting a Corvid party next. They’re so clever!

Thanks Karen. And yes it is hard to find a balance!

Oh, comfort rules but even well-fitted comfort clothes are pricy!
What size print are you looking for? My regular frame shop stopped doing prints, but I can order a print for you online. Let me know!
I want to get into a house and see what I’m working with for space and then I’ll get back to you. 😊
I think we are getting close to a decision. 🤗
Sending you closing house vibes!!
Thank you!

I noticed the face in the bark of the tree before reading your essay. ❤️
I look forward to seeing which songbirds show up for the summer party!
