Fiddle heads are a popular veggie option of a restaurant that's not far from where I live.  Before I started receiving their emails, I didn't know Fiddle heads even existed, much less are edible.  I've never eaten one and don't plan to in the foreseeable future.  

I was looking for inspiration on Pinterest and what do you know...  A photograph of a cute little Hummingbird delicately perched on top of a fiddle head was posted.   Just had to create a painting from that.

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.   

Little Dee, No.1

Little Dee, No. 1 - Oil on Canvas, 2 x 2 inches with Easel $20.  Buy with Paypal This is an experiment  to force myself to say more with less.  Painting with less brushwork because I have to!  Also, I don't paint on canvas, so I have to get use to that.  But I am having fun.
