These two look as impressed with the fact that it is winter as I am. Grumpy? No matter, it is winter and there is nothing they or I can do about it. Cheer up!! At least they don’t have a dump of snow on them like my cardinals do!
Quick Lets Go South

Time to do some art. Now that is a switch!! Time for art?? Since it is a rather soggy sunless day in these parts I came up with a plan to paint a pair of cardinals. You know, just to get me into a better Christmas frame of mind. One thing led to another and the next thing I knew the cardinals were looking a little too snow bound and frazzled. Ergo, “Quick Lets Go South”!! I like to think the one cardinal is pointing in that direction. It looks to me like he is. Enjoy! Cheers, Susan

It was draw a bird day on November 8th. Due to computer issues and a busy schedule I missed it. Here I have cropped an older painting of mine called “Bath Time” and am posting it as my contribution. Better late then never!! Cheers, Susan

“A Birds Eye View”

A bit of whimsy for all of you and my imagination at work. Picture if you will a grassy field smattered with wild flowers. Countless birds happily singing and flitting about. This painting is how that field would look threw the eye of a bird. Or as I imagine it would. Hopefully you can picture this bright sunny day too. As you may be able to tell I am thinking of sun filled days and missing the colors, sounds, smells and warmth of them. A happy place!
Cheers, Susan Feniak
Another in progress

See me smile? But due to another sleepless night. (Being sleepless is just me being me.) I came up with an idea for a new painting. Since I didn’t feel well enough equipped to attempt much of anything else today I decided to put said idea onto canvas. This is the biggest canvas I have tackle in a while and did I ever have fun with my brushes and paints. Almost enough to make me forget all about the sleepless night! There is a lot more left to do but the painting is of the world as a bird might see it. A Birds Eye View.
Cheers, Susan Feniak

Derwent Water Color Pencils, Holbein Water Colors, Pigma Ink on Opus Essential Sketch Book paper.
These chilly days of November give me a few more hours to spend drawing and experimenting with my water colors. This time I played with splattering the paint. It is rather fun. I hope you like my Red Cardinal in the snow.
Cheers, Susan Feniak

A quick sketch today. I managed to produce this one in about one hours time. Recently my Brother, Sister and Mother took a trip to Long Beach on Vancouver Island. A life long dream of my Sister’s fulfilled. While there she took many photo’s and video’s which she has since shared with me. Of course I was immediately inspired. In my quest to practice more with water colors I bought myself a nice new set of Holbein Water Colors. What do you think? Have they helped me?
Thinking of my Sister this day. Enjoy! Susan Feniak
