Day 67 Flaring Spirit



Day 67 — By request, I decided to paint a rooster with all its spunk for today's painting. One thing that's remarkable about these creatures is their bright colored feathers and their spirited character. They're truly majestic looking birds and being around them in our friend's farm - they have an inquisitive and fun nature. Enjoy "Flaring Spirit."

Day 66 Embracing the Wave of Change



Day 66 — Got to reading about some of the animals I've painted and some others yet to paint. I came across the panther & salmon. These are two interesting creatures and according to the book, the panther is about embracing the unknown while the salmon is about embracing the known - which is inner knowing or instinct. The two lessons here is about embracing the unknown, which is outside of the self, and embracing the known, which is inside the self. Today's painting conveys the black panther calmly awaiting the wave while the three salmon swim & jump to the flow of the wave. The salmon is taking action through its inner wisdom to flow with the wave of change. While the daylight moon shows both the visible and invisible parts of itself. Great imagery! Enjoy "Embracing the Wave of Change."

Day 64 Beautiful Day in the Tuscan Villa



Day 64 — Today's Tuscan scene was inspired by my really great friend in San Diego. She's like a big sister to me. Happy birthday, Paula. She's talked often about her dream of living in a Tuscan villa in Tuscany, so I decided to stay with the theme. Here is my interpretation entitled "Beautiful Day in the Tuscan Villa."

Day 63 Tuscany: Grapes, Olives & Villas



Day 63 — Happy birthday to my big sister, Arlene! She inspired today's painting with her talks on visiting Tuscany. This gave me the idea for painting a scene overlooking a Tuscan villa complete with an olive grove, grapes and rolling hillsides. I love the beautifully lit sky in the background. Such a wonderful day in the villa.

Enjoy "Tuscany: Grapes, Olives & Villas."

Day 62 Jungle Swimming Lesson



Day 62 — Continuing with the jungle cat, I've painted a mother with her cub. She swims in the river while her cub watches for the first swimming lesson. I love the color scheme on these paintings. It gives it a dramatic and serene feeling for me. What are your feelings on the painting, entitled "Jungle Swimming Lesson."

Day 61 Chasing Dragons



Day 61 — This has been a fun several days painting the elephants. I've decided to explore the jungle wildlife a little more with tigers. Today's inspired painting has our jungle cat leaping from the water for dragons...or dragonflies, rather. It's a fun painting.

Enjoy "Chasing Dragons."
