and my Mourning Dove that I painted last night. He's on a 5"x7" stretched, wrapped canvas that was textured with tissue paper (I was going to use it for a collage) and painted with acrylics. I'm not sure I'm pleased with the ruffled feathers on his back... They look kind of uniform... and I might use some more colors in the sky. Anyway... here he is... my "Morning Coo."
Kimmie's on vacation I think, but you can still see what the other Tuesday Tea ladies are up to by visiting her blog Art in Red Wagons. We're a group listed on her sidebar.
Mourning doves and their gentle manner and cooing rank up there with my favorites at the feeder. Great painting - I love it!!!Glad you could join us for tea!!
ReplyDeleteand a sweet morning coo to you too Dianne :)
ReplyDeleteLove your dove, wonderful coloring and feathers!
we always have doves scooting around in our garden ... I enjoy watching them ... now if I ever saw a butterfly as beautiful as the one you painted in our garden here in N VA = WOW that would be something else! More butterflies this year than last which is encouraging!
Happy T to ya!

ReplyDeleteThe butterfly is lovely, but that dove is stunning. I think it is actually pretty perfect. Sorry I'm so late getting here. I've been out all day and finally made it here to say happy Tea Tuesday.
