bird angel

Bird angel  
3 x 3 in.

When I was explaining my painting process at the show last week, I was explaining how much I love the effect of painting white on the wood. In fact this effect was also the beginning of how my characters evolved, and why so many are white. I just really love how the white paint connects with the wood. It kind of has it’s own magic that just happens each time I paint a character in white ~ the way the wood peers through the paint to add dimension to each figure.

It’s late again on this Tuesday evening and I did manage to squeeze in a little creative time in the form of this tiny original to share with you ~ a bird angel all in white.

Also, I have to tell you that in the spirit of the season Christine is hosting all kinds of fun giveaways at her blog every day and today is she is giving away one of my calendars! I believe you can leave comments through the weekend to enter.

Enjoy the tiny bird angel ~ consider her a tiny blog angel too, one sent to watch over you. I always love the idea of a guardian angel, especially during this time of year.

How pretty! I love the color scheme.
This is my absolute favorite yet! Whenever it's time for me to have a child, I am definitely using your art to decorate his/her room! Thank you for sharing.
Love white on white. It reminds me of whitewashed walls in cabins :)
