My First Daily Painting

I've decided to join the daily painter's movement.  It is the best move I can make for my growth as an artist.

obtaining skills as an artist does not come by wishing them so.  Artistic skills are earned from years of painting.  Painting when you don't feel like it, painting inspite of the messes you are making, painting inspite of your best painting to date is one only your mother could love! 

After years of bugging my husband for a dog, he finally said we could adopt a Mini-Schnauzer.  I found Cooper and he's been in our life for a little over 4 years.  It is only natural then, that my first posting would be a little watercolor of Cooper.

Cardinal Conclave

ACEO, 2.5 x 3.5 inches Watercolor, $ 18. Buy with Paypal As of this posting the Roman Catholic Cardinals are still in conclave to discover the next pope.  I'm not Roman Catholic but I do have a wonderment about the this process because it's so entwined in mystery.   This little watercolor Cardinal was at my bird feeder where he grabbed a sunflower seed and quickly flew to a tree limb to perch and enjoy.  After which he waits his turn to return.
