  2. Thanks Karne, Seagull.

    This painting is based on an old photo I took and I think the painting is marvelous too. I'm trying to push her towards avian art more and more...

    1. Since you're the only person I know who wears a hat, I take this compliment with much gravity : )

  6. Thanks everyone. I really appreciate the encouragement, and of course Maria does too. I hoping that in the future she'll be able to do some smaller paintings that I can raffle off as prizes for quizzes, guest posts, etc.
