"QUILTED BIRD"($100.)
Another small bird that comes to my feeder. I believe they are Gold Finches. Today I had an unexpected visitor. Living in the Pacific Northwest we have Anna Humming birds that stay here all winter. Today I saw a Rufus Humming Bird at the feeder. Oh, so magnificent in the sun; he flashed colors of orange copper and gold! I have tried painting the Anna's, but feel I failed trying to capture the iridescent colors of the bird. My husband suggested I glue sequins on the throat for the colors...not a bad idea since my bird paintings are partly about collage.I made an attempt to change my blogs color format, it still needs some tweeking, can't get the top to do what I want. Probably will have to stay that way. Sometimes with my finagling I send stuff into never-never land on the computer and can't find a way to retrieve it.
