One day in my frustration I scribbled over some thumb nails and proceeded to draw birds with lyrics to that song by The Eels, Birds....it was one of those days.
I don't know why I love drawing birds so much, I just do, and it's always small ones like Finches and Canary's...here I added some froggies coz they're fun to paint too...
I have made a lot of vases with different items than flowers. Like exotic animals, make up and other crazy stuff. The illustrations is all digital and vector.
These patterns are all made from drawings pulled from my 2017 sketchbook project. I studied fiber arts in grad school and learned how to do repeat patterns - the old fashioned way by cutting and taping paper together... I haven't done any in 25 years - until this month!
The amnesia of birds.
A misread sentence that is very obviously better than the original, because I can't even imagine what the original might have been.

The Green Heron is one of the world’s few tool-using bird species. It often creates fishing lures with bread crusts, insects, and feathers, dropping them on the surface of the water to entice small fish.
Green Herons usually hunt by wading in shallow water, but occasionally they dive for deep-water prey and need to swim back to shore—probably with help from the webs between their middle and outer toes.
Botanical Hawk Design I drew for my former junior college alumni banquet. They had it printed on a giant canvas for people to color. It started out as a small doodle and transpired into something else. ha ha. Made this with Sakura Micron Ink ( 01 and 005) on Bristol with Digital Editing to finish.
"No Catch" When I saw this Kingfisher on Artkula art community, which I'm a member of being an avid amateur bird/wildlife artist, I knew I had to try it. #birds #bampi #wildlife #Animal #bird #philsarttutorclasses #pastels #DigitalArt #digitalpastels #freecourses Thanks for your time!

Birds or Fish? is created with markers on Master's Touch 46lb marker paper. Influenced in part by Kandinsky, I laid down the color splotches before using the black marker for the birds/fish.
