Bald Eagles
I think I died and went to eagle heaven today. It was reported that there were more than 100 bald eagles roosting at Bean Lake in Rushville, MO, and in somewhat disbelief, I headed over there.. and it was true. These three I was able to walk right up to the trees that they were sitting in. Pretty amazing. More photos to come..
Sunbird – Cut Paper Art
11 x 14 inch paper cutting. I really had no idea where I was going with this paper cutting when I posted the last in progress shot.. It just sort of came about as I went.
Weather Report
Today was a far cry from Monday in terms of the weather.. I love it either way. It’s winter — I’ll take all the snow I can get. This squirrel was braving the freezing wind while waiting for me to lay out some sunflower seeds. Animals are so much better equipped for the weather than us humans.
Some of my artwork making itself at home in Morocco. (Thanks Susan & Abby!)
The Reading Tree – Cut Paper Art
8 x 10 inch paper cutting. The black & white tree design was commissioned for a tattoo based on the classic design “Book Tree” by artist Robert Whitmore, frequently used on bookplates starting in the 1930?s and still popular today. I then added color to make it complete for my own use, and it’ll be part of my exhibit that I’m hanging Friday in Lawrence (see calendar in the sidebar for details).
Sunbird paper cutting in progress
Sun Children II
Today I delivered two originals to a collector in Kansas City: “Ties That Bind” (one of my very favorites) and “Sun Children II” – a commission based on my original “Sun Children” (I didn’t take a proper photo..). These joined the same home as one of my other all-time favorites, “Midnight Garden”.
