Movin' on

These long legs are movin' on, this guy looks like he has places to go.  I love painting the birds that I see on the lake that I live on here in Southern Illinois.  The lake is frozen right now, so I guess I am "movin' on" in my mind, looking toward warm weather again.  Blue skies and big birds, it's going to be a good one!  I included a picture of this guy in a 16 x 20 mat propped in my studio to give you a better idea of his size.

Day 15 of 30 paintings in 30 days "still waters"

This is day 15 of the thirty paintings in 30 days challenge that I am doing through January.   Today, "still waters" this brown pelican is all alone, and I think he is quite satisfied.  I painted this from a photo my friend David took.  The reflections tell that the water was very still that day.  Looks like a peaceful place to hang out on a rock!  I love to paint birds, and I have another shot of a pelican that I intend to do very soon.  Thank you for following me as  I paint through January!
