                   Baby Budgies - photography 

While sorting through and attempting to downsize the maze of photos on my desktop and in ‘documents’ folders, I could easily spend weeks on the computer doing just that.

My sister-in-law has a prolific female Budgie – here, her chicks about seven days old – April 2007.

Eastern White Pine 18 x 24 inches Oil Pastels on paper, framed size 21 x 27 inches

Finished today, and the first drawing in a long time that I didn’t stop to document along the way…that breaks the momentum of work sometimes. This one kind of flew out for a change! It can be viewed in Arlington, Texas at AVAA’s 32nd Annual Regional Juried Art Exhibit, February 15 – March 28, 2008.
