Pacific Wren

This is a painting I did for one of our neighbors.  I don't paint many birds, so I was a little out of my comfort zone, but I think I might try to paint more because this was so much fun!  I've also been so much more aware of  the sweet flying friends we have around us!

This is a commissioned painting that I just finished.  I love the splashing surf in the background!

So Close and Yet So Far Away

Our wonderful friends have the sweetest dog, Fathom.  She loves playing ball and swimming!  I used a photo I took a few years ago in the San Juan Islands as a reference.  If I can remember correctly, she eventually jumped in after the ball.
