post holiday

Time to get back to work... literally 'back to the drawing board'! I am currenly working on a commission of two separate paintings. Both paintings will be of birds; one penguin and one flamingo and both will be in watercolor. Knowing nada about either birds, I started out looking around the internet for information. I've concentrated first on the penguin... who knew there were SO MANY different kinds of penguins? (well, apparently someone because there are several extensive websites out there about them). King Penguin, Emperor Penguin, Chinstrap Penguin etc...This is a funky bird!

cool website


http://www.modestypanel.com/artorcrap/
Take the fun quiz on this site... like it states, it isn't whether or not you think it's actually crap (and it pretty much is), it's whether someone out there exhibited it as "ART".

watercolor

This is an older painting... I haven't done much watercolor, other than the greeting cards in quite a while. I do really love watercolor and I want to start a new still life soon so I think I'll use this medium. (as soon as I clear away some of the Christmas cards mess!)
