Monday Art Practice & Eagle Pair

   Good Afternoon Monday,

Looking out our front door and looking up the hill into the trees-yep the eagle pair are here. I took a short video (turn up sound)





Always so grateful to see this pair close to the house.

I did grab my book again and used a tree and fox for inspiration


I used mostly inks and a little watercolor paints (note: see my T post (a couple posts back) where I posted about making inks)



The little mouse appeared on the logs-watching the fox haha


  Also early this morning the wolf moon appeared out the front door We were in the low 20's F so I took this photo indoors through a glass window

  2. Oh, there's my favorite little woodland critter, the sly fox, or maybe not so sly. He's a real beauty, Kathy. What a fantastic job you did on this painting. And, the mouse is darling.

    1. Yes we are blessed to have this breeding pair so close to the lake house where we live now. the previous owner told us to watch for them-and that she would greatly miss them-I look for them every day and listen for their songs too

    1. Yes I think the eagles were talking to each other.
      thanks I think the fox turned out pretty cute, yesterday I did a fawn-didn't like the face very much will try again--this morning I am making the blackberry ink-found some nice large berries at the food store yesterday-slow process straining it out-will need another filtering I think too.
      the moon has been so beautiful this month-it is the wolf moon this month hugs back

  6. I was out all day and evening, and just got my Thursday post finished, so I am really running behind. I know I've been stressed lately, but I want to make sure I thanked you for the postcard you sent several days ago. I hope I did already, but if not, I apologize. I will be sharing it for T Tuesday next week.

    Those eagles are amazing. Great you could get them to "talk" like that.

    I saw the moon yesterday morning. It was BRIGHT. Love your photo.

    Your watercolors and inks are wonderful. I confess that my favorite is still the bunny, but I'm loving that you are doing this daily. Have a super non stressed day, dear.

    1. You have had allot going on especially losing your electricity for several days during cold weather. I am happy you got the postcard ok. We look for this eagle pair every day-this is the time of year we see them together-they will be breeding soon.
      thank you-I do like bunny too, and the fox wasn't too bad, the deer I need to try again-working on doing something creative every day. was happy with my blackberry ink I made yesterday.
      Hoping you get non stressed-hugs

  7. Sounds like I didn't notify you the postcard came. It may have come when I was offline. Thank you in advance and look for it on Monday afternoon. HOPEFULLY! I love how you colored it.
