Just learned to make these little freestyle birds. I love them. And it is so much fun to work without a pattern. Just GO FOR IT!!! I see a quilt coming soon…..or at least a tablerunner. 🙂

Our Little Bird Series begins this Thursday. We will be painting one every three weeks or so into the fall. Don’t worry it you can’t make every session. We will have a few make-up sessions along the way so you can catch up if you want to do them all. There is only a couple of seats left in the first one…the little bluebird….so register now by clicking here.

Last month while I was staining the deck out back I noticed a waterlogged bird nest in a tree limb that overhangs there. Then the heavy winds and days of rain came and I didn’t think anything else about it because I didn’t figure anything could be in it. This morning while out back with Lincoln I looked up and saw these two little faces looking out. They didn’t move at all but there little heads were just right above the nest. Guess mom is off finding them a worm. She must be terribly persistent to make that little home work.

The kid’s classes this week started working on their Valentine’s for their sweethearts. We made Love Birds using paper. They look super! Great job everyone.

The Ibis is a long-legged wading bird with down curved bills often found in Florida. They are also known as the hurricane bird as they are generally the last to leave an area before a hurricane arrives and the first to return. I saw many of them on my recent visit to Florida but this reference photo comes from Cousin Linda who posted it recently on her Facebook page. Thanks Linda for the inspiration.
Ibis, acrylic on canvas, 36″x18″, $265.
