Around Sunset

8 x 8 Oil on canvas board, framed
I always think that skies look like they should be easy to paint, but it takes me so long to mix the right colors and have it look believable. I love the outcome when they work!

Love this chicken! Don't know what kind she is, but I can't get it out of my head that she is all dressed up with her new hat and is out just struttin' her stuff!

Sitting Pretty

8 x 10 Oil on gessoed masonite

This is a bad photograph, I will hopefully get to do it over, but here it is for now.
A lovely hawk, watching for his next meal up in a bare tree with a wintery sky behind.
What a beauty he was, so regal in his perch!
