Good Morning Merry Sunshine
Early Bird Special 20" X 24" acrylic, ink, oil crayon, and charcoal on canvas
The painting that started out as some sort of four legged creature became a bird, or rather several birds, including, in the words of my niece, "the camouflage bird" in the upper right corner. I don't know why I can't get away from birds. Someone once toldme that I was in danger of becoming known as The Crazy Bird Lady. Birds are, apparently, "a means of expressing (my) identity using symbols from the language of a personal mythology". Or maybe I just think they're fun. This painting is really more about morning than birds anyway. While I was at the beach, I took a long walk every morning, and my head was flooded each day with color and images, but mostly colors, beach colors: driftwood, sand, ocean, and sunshine. I think you're going to see a lot of these colors from me for a while.

Love your morning bird! These are great colors. I tend to do a lot of birds too. I just finished my 3rd one. YOur REM music is making me happy this morning!
It's a great painting! I love birds, and there's nothing wrong with painting birds all the time! If they appear on the canvas, don't hold back but give them wings to fly!
Love this and the title too!
