Squirrels

Hmmmm.  I think I'll refine this one a bit tomorrow.  More fluff in the tail, and some work on that back leg.  My squirrel-in-action anatomy reference was this picture that my husband took last November:Needless to say there are some gaps in my understanding of squirrel musculature.

Honk if you spot who's coming next:)

hi, just wanted to say i drop in to your blog on a regular basis and find your work inspiring, i write and paint a little and birds just keep cropping up, (not on a professional basis... jugggling kids with creative work...), i think a blog such as yours is incredibly generous in spirit, you work so hard at your art, thankyou for sharing it! niamh

Cat B--I knew I could count on you for a HONK!

Beth--thank you! I've been popping in to your blog too:)

Niamh--thank you for your kind comments! They mean a great deal to me:) Birds are such great subjects--flight, nesting, hatching....these things fascinate me. And of course, there's the beauty. We can't forget the beauty! Cheers, and thank you for reading!
