Here is one more I worked on November 24.

Yellowthroat in the weeds

Sat down and did a little drawing today. This was a piece from the last studio session. Common Yellowthroats tend to blend into their surrounding. When I saw these plants I was intrigued by how wispy they were in the fields. There is always one or two Common Yellowthroats flitting around them in migration.

Great show inspires new art

I belong to a great group of creative artists. Last weekend our group, Georgia Coastal Artists, held our fall show at Glynn Art Association on St. Simons Island. It is a very quiet time of year but still a few people came to look and buy. Today, Ella Cart brought a painting to work on while sitting with her work. She invited me to get some paper and join her. Well, I looked in the van and found paper. What was I going to draw? I always have a sketch book so I took one of the sketches a Yellow-crowned Night-Heron. I started but I needed some native plants, so I walked around the building. Low and behold, there was beautiful fall red Virginia Creeper and palmetto. Here is what came out of the afternoon. Thanks Ella that was fun.

Art show November 12 & 13 on St. Simons Island Georgia

Sketching project

I am making time everyday to get back to sketching live wild birds, here is one of my sketches from last week. Practice, practice, practice.

Monotypes from Late July Studio session

Here are three monotypes that came out of the late July studio session. My french tool press is a wonderful press. I am always amazed at nature and the patterns it provides if we just look.

Swallow-tailed Kite sketching

Here are three sketches of Swallow-tailed Kites that were at the Skeen's Farm near Glenville, Ga.

It was an amazing time watching these birds catch June bugs.
