  1. Dianne, I was blown away by all these beauties. You have been amazingly busy. I am partial to birds, and these are simply GORGEOUS. Of course, that sea horse is pretty special, too.

  2. Dianne,
    These paintings with their brilliantly colored creatures of sea and air are delightful to the eye and the spirit. I was smiling the moment I opened your blog. So lovely! What work you must have put into these!

  5. Your backgrounds are really creative. They almost have a watercolor look to them. My favorite is the second crow. Love his expression and his long beak.

  6. These are fantastic! I love the Indigo's! Have you ever seen a Painted Bunting down there? My Mom saw one on her deck and got a great picture of it. We don't get them up here in GA., well at least where I am at, but we do get the Indigo's, such a pretty little bird! Really am enjoying all these latest creations from you, hope you enjoy your day!
