HI, Here is a photo of my new heron painting in progress, I have to put the reflections in as it is standing in water and the water. This I hope to have finished and framed for the Chincoteague Decoy and Art Show next weekend. Friday, April 2 and Saturday April 3. Check out the website at www.chincoteaguedecoyshow.com. I've been finishing a little chickadee and tulip painting earlier today. Talk to you soon. 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!

Bluebird and Dogwood Painting

HI, What a week! What a month! ah well, I can use a bluebird,how about you? I just finished this painting a few minutes ago. I've got a show coming up Easter Weekend and I love dogwood and Bluebirds. I send you wishes for a beautiful spring with wellness and love, Diana
