Clarinet Player

A customer requested a simple impression of herself playing the clarinet, something she has done most of her life. Since I had no good photographic visuals, I had to imagine a simple stylistic rendition of her. After minor adjustments, she accepted this, and it will be sent off to her in a week or so.

Girly Shoes

What little girl would not want to skip around in in pink tennies with hearts on them? Upon posting, I see that I have not yet finished off the eyelets nor signed in the lower left…back to the easel.

Juncos

Visiting my window recently are these sweet white-bellied Juncos. He has a black coat and hers is a little charcoal gray. I read that they will build their nests anywhere from tall grasses to treetops.

All My Heart

Weather has been sub-zero lately, making me want to snuggle with a cushy little bear. Oh, and they always love you back.
