“The Nest”

“The Nest” Original art by Susan Feniak. #WorldWatercolorGroup.   I really enjoyed creating this trio of barn swallows at home in their mud nest.  I can only imagine the cacophony whilst they wait for the parents to arrive with food to fill those wide open mouths.  Have a wonderful day.  Cheers! PEACE

#WorldWatercolorGroup #Draw a Bird Day

#WorldWatercolorGroup, #Draw a Bird Day, November 8. “Mallard Duckling” original art by Susan Feniak.  The WorldWatercolorGroup prompt for today was actually  “Cappuccinos”.  Since I am not a coffee junkie I opted for Draw A Bird Day instead.  This duckling is a Mallard.  My inspiration is from a photo by Bill McMullen that I found in a Canadian Wildlife Federation calendar that arrived at our door this past week.

“Fun With Flamingo’s” #WorldWatercolorGroup

IMG_20160824_113746“Fun With Flamingo’s”  #WorldWatercolorGroup  This started as fun with splattering paint and squirting water at it to see what would happen.  When I added pink one thing led to another and I ended up with Flamingo’s.   A bit of whimsy which I rather like.  And I had fun too.  Hope these guys bring a smile to your face.  Cheers!  PEACE

Paint A Bird Day

“Sproink and Frisk Out And About”  original art by Susan Feniak acrylic on 12″ x 12″ box canvas

It is the 8th day of the month and time for Paint a Bird Day!!  Or is it Draw a Bird Day?  For me it is paint a bird day.  This is one I did a couple of years ago of the Killdeer chicks Sproink and Frisk.  In case you didn’t know it Killdeer chicks are one of the cutest things out there and a joy to paint.  Cheers, Susan Feniak
