This Little Chickie

 

This Little Chickie 
8" x 8" Oil on Panel 
As I was taking my morning walk in our neighborhood, I saw two chickens running loose in the a neighbor's yard.  I tried to get a good photograph of them, but they were scampering around exploring since they had escaped their coop.  I painted this small panel in the studio, where it is drying.  This painting is available for purchase.  Contact Kay for more info.  Thanks for looking!  KMW

On My Easel....

 

Multiple canvases on my easel...It's a work in progress, and it takes time.  I have had this quadriptych in the studio for a couple of months.  I get inspired, I get bored, I get stumped.  Right now I am enjoying this painting.  40" x 40" is a lot of canvas to cover!  More on this later.  Thanks for looking at my art.  Kay

Standing Tall

 

Standing Tall
16" x 8" Oil on Panel
Our weather has been good for the past week, and John and I have been to the lake several times.  I spotted this egret standing in the reeds along the shoreline.  And loved how he is tucked away in the dense growth with the lake in the distance.  I painted this one in the studio, and used my artistic license to add color to the reeds.  It took several sessions to paint, as I needed the layers of oil to dry before I applied more paint...not wanting to create mud.  This painting is drying in the studio.   Thanks for looking at my art...Kay
