Pretending that it's cold

Thinking about winter and un-made Christmas cards... Maybe I should just accept the fact that I'll never be organized enough to mail cards and hope... Birds around here don't need caps and scarfs, but I thought it would be fun to paint them like that anyway.

  1. These would have made great christmas cards, you should totally send out a few cards to your favourite people. Those birds are pretty darn cute.

  2. I don't have to pretend. it was a minus 8 this morning. I am sure you have heard on TV about the weather in the midwest.

    Cards are about all I can do this year, so I have had some fun making different ones, printing some off and mounting them with the little brads on other papers.
    The letter writing is a bit more difficult, as most that I send cannot say the same thing like those Christmas letters, it has to be to the person, not to the crowd.

    I like your birds, you hae a great wealth of bird ideas in your artist's mind, great shapes, different positions, paint swirled just right with the shape of the bird. I have to do another bird page and I need to get some photos to look at the direction I should paint to give the bird some beauty.
    I have this old tape in my head from grae school, and the bird always has a sway back unless i put effort into not doing that.
    I have a drawing my daughter did in grade school with black paint on newspaper and she did a bird the same. So cute and so nice that in the 70s the art teacher was having kids do art on newspaper.

  4. Wish I had to pretend....I've got the REAL thing to contend with. Wanted to let you know that the videos I've viewed from the workshop are great. I won't have time to actually paint and create until after the holidays but look forward to it then. Sharon P.

  5. Those little "snow" birds are so cute. Right there is your Christmas card. Print those out and use them!

    I haven't made any cards either! I think about it but I never get them made.
