November Kinglet

November Kinglet  5" x 7"  acrylic  $395

SOLD

A Ruby-Crowned Kinglet flits it's way through the last of the seasons fall colors. These energetic birds spend most of their time quickly working through the branches of small trees and shrubs and rarely stop to take a break.  The fall colors with just a hint of last seasons greens are what attracted me to paint this scene.

Heading Out

Heading Out  7" x 5" acrylic  $395

On a long fishing excursion off the northern tip of Vancouver Island, we ducked into the inlet of a wind sheltered island for the night. This fishing boat came in after we went to sleep.  Then as quietly as it came in, it slipped back out sea through the glassy water and the fog just as we were walking up.

Costa's Hummingbird

Costa's Hummingbird   4" x 4"  acrylic   $225

A male Costa's Hummingbird perches on a branch to take a quick break from gathering the nectar of nearby flowers. These birds are common in the desert Southwest and their brilliant purple head and throat make them easily identifiable. An interesting fact is the feathers that project off the side of the throat are called the gorget (pronounced gorjet) and project out further than on any other North American hummingbird species.

Afternoon Pintail

Afternoon Pintail   5" x 7"  acrylic  $395

As the winter afternoon light gets low, a quiet marsh offers a peaceful sanctuary to a pair of pintails. Painting the different habitats was both challenging and fun - from the leafless winter trees and evergreen covered mountains to the wetland and its unique grasses. There is a lot of detail for a painting of this size!

Available through Parklane Gallery's National Juried Show of Small Works November 8th - January 3rd.
