JANUARY 24 Painting A Day " A Gift"
(I fixed the face...I couldn't understand why the bird didn't look as sweet as I wanted and as the source photo bird was...my beek was frowning and my eye highlights were too harsh...so I softened them...much better.)

This little bird is a Gift for someone who loves birds. It was fun to paint a painting that came from what I know another would love.
And here is the patient little model...sitting in her nest....
And just for fun I put this cute little queen bird found on my bloggy friend Terisa's blog. She said it was made by her friend from "the little pink studio".

First I want to tell you your bird is very well done!
Second, Thank you for taking the time to read that far back on my blog! And yes you should be posting for owoh! Third, I have to give the compliment to Little Pink Studio. She is who made the very cute bird. You can see her link here. http://www.littlepinkstudio.typepad.com/
We did the gooofy one at the end of that post. I was so taken by everyones really cute designs of birds in their nests and realized how funny the one that lived in my house looked!
But I must say you get the award for most time spent on my blog in one evening!
Thank you!

Beautiful bird...quick note - not sure if you noticed on my blog I awarded you the Honest Scrap Award...no biggie
Also, quick question - how did you post you etsy badge and link it to your store...I can't figure out how to do that? Any advice???

first of all, your work is beautiful!
I found a link to you on my page on SuziBlu's ning group, a page which I have never visited because all I've done there is watch the video, but that's about it. So I came here and was surprised to see your pretty doll with the puppy, which I had commented on in grittyjane's group (another place where I have only watched the videos.)
Small world isn't it, even on the web!
Just wanted to tell you that I watched you Christmas video and the song and video itself are beautiful!
You are very, very talented.
thanks for visiting my one world one heart giveaway.
You have a beautiful blog.

Loved the Christmas song and husband's music as well.
Beautiful.
