Canadian Geese& Chincoteague Decoy Show

HI! I've been working on these lovely Canadian Geese, here is the sketch with the beginning of the first goose in watercolor,as you can see the other too are sketched and ready to paint. I saw some fly over yesterday. Such grace.

I've got to pack the car and get everything ready for the Chincoteague Decoy and Art Show. I've decided to set up in the morning... instead of tonight. It will help. It takes an hour to get there from here. The causeway into Chinoteague is one of the prettiest places I've seen, a treat. Hope you all have a wonderful Easter and Holiday. take care, Diana

Daylily & Hummer

HI, I'm getting ready for the Decoy Show, I just finished this morning my "Daylily and Hummer" painting. It's more traditional watercolor style -- Sometimes the subject seems to call for a particular style. I love the dark viridian green mix for the background, that makes the daylily and hummer colors contrast or pop. We are patiently waiting for spring here... the crocus have started to bloom and Daisy and Rudy are surprizingly next to each other in a moment of quiet... Not a norm here as Daisy usually steals Rudy's food.. Well I'd best get back to painting.. soon we have to hang our Hummingbird feeders out!
