Red-breasted Nuthatch

Red-breasted Nuthatch 8″ x 8″

I recently saw a nuthatch for the first time, so I’ve been wanting to paint it. I found out that it is the only bird that can walk straight down a tree trunk. It hides seeds in the trunk to eat later.

Sparrows in the Reeds

Sparrows in the Reeds 14″ x 11″

I like the diagonal movement in this one. It’s easy to imagine everything swaying back and forth in the breeze and the birds fluttering from one reed to the next.

Tabby

This cat has a very intense stare. He looks like he’s going to pounce on one of my birds.

These cats are hanging out at the Corner Cup Coffee House.

When in doubt, paint more birds. I guess this is what I do while other ideas are percolating. Don’t want to have an empty easel after all.

The private commission I recently did left me with a few ideas that I wanted to explore – like this view from Whytecliff Park in West Vancouver.
