Just the other day as Tuck and I were out and about we found this precious nest between the weeds and leaves. The owners of the nest were very near and made sure Tuck and myself did not damage the magical cargo inside. I am convinced the fairies are very much at work pointing me in this new direction. Or better yet the universe is saying pay attention and I am answering you. Fortunately I have listened and carry a small notebook with me now so I made a quick sketch to later work on. I am not sure why I just know I must. I am certainly enjoying it.

Nest No 1 Original Nature Illustration Painting

A wonderful new nest series of Nature Illustrations and this is the first of the nests. It is 8″ x 6″ in shades of blues browns and leaf greens. While exploring this past weekend I stumbled upon this nest tucked in between the leaves and grass. This is from a quick sketch I did.The illustration is on hot pressed fine art paper. I used graphite and watercolors/gouache and arrives unframed. You can easily mount it to matte board and frame it in a standard frame. The edges of the paper are hand deckle by me.Wouldn’t this look so sweet in a nursery?Ask about shipping internationally?

I am finding feathers everywhere and anywhere. It was very obvious something was trying to get my attention. I am focusing on nature and the energy I feel when I walk about in the woods or down the street. I am not sure why they need to get my attention but it is said guides and angels will often leave a feather behind. That is a very nice thought but… you can go nuts trying to discover what they might be saying. I am learning to relax and allowing the flow of life and nature to work through and around me. Then one evening as Tuck and I were quietly watching the world around us come alive a crows feather fell in front of me and as the light hit it beautiful shades of browns and dark blues radiated from it. It was as if all of nature was screaming at me paint it you fool. So I did. A very new series of illustrations simplified and detailed plants nests birds and of course feathers are being created.

Feather No.1 Original Illustration Painting watercolor hand deckled edges

I love this new series of nature illustrations in pencil and watercolor. I love the detail of the feather and the subtle color changes. I found this crows feather and thought how simple yet elegant. The colors of the black changed as the light did.I used hot pressed fine artpaper. I hand deckle the edges so you can mount my illustrations onto matte board or frame it the usual way. To protect the art you should frame it under a glazing. I chose a 6″ x 6″ size because it can easily be mounted on a 8″ x 10″ board and use a standard frame found almost anywhere.Please ask me about shipping internationally for actual charges.
