Painting Favorite Topics As Means to Escape This Week’s News

Here are two paintings that helped me forget about the tragedies of this week’s news.  🙁     First, we have chinstrap penguins in their habitat.  They have a natural smile on their faces.   And then a young woodpecker found in Crandon Park based on photo.

Sea Sparkle Along Sapphire Coast (Bioluminescence–North of Tathra, NSW, Australia)

I saw this photo by David Rogers–could not locate him but will still try–this painting was loosely based on one of several of his photos of the amazing sea sparkle that you can see north of Tathra, in New South Wales.  I just have to return to Australia…

Blue-winged kookaburra (from Australia)

I like the colors of this bird.  This guy is from Australia.

This weekend, I experimented with 3D Fabric Paint on top of Watercolors. What do you think?

First we have 2 manatees in the water.  Then an abstract rendition of flowers with a bird who flew into the scene.

This Week’s Paintings

Some of the girls from work went to “Paint Nite-Miami”.  8 of us went and all 8 had different renditions of the same theme.  I doctored mine up after getting home–three trees with lots of colors but without little animals seemed lacking so 2 rabbits and 2 squirrels got added.  See if you can find them.  Then today (Sunday), I did a painting based on a photo of some horses done by a professional photographer named Alberto Ghizzi Panizza from Italy, of a group of horses. You can see the original photo here on 500px:
