Stunning Watercolor Art
I don't know if there might be someone out there who might like this woman's paintings--but I love them! Just bought a gorgeous watercolor original of a Scarlet Macaw in the rain from her. See pic below.
Anyway, here are some links to her work you might like. One is a Yellow Nape Amazon, and one is a particularly stunning painting of a TAG. She does incredible work, both the small art cards, and the larger paintings, of which these two are examples. Anyway, if you're interested, here they are :-): http://cgi.ebay.com/YELLOW-NAPED-AMA...QQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com/African-Grey-PAR...QQcmdZViewItem

She does wonderful work. The one of the TAG is fabulous. I'll keep an eye on her to see if does any Ekkies.

Its the most important thing, to do what you love. Life is too short...

You might want to inquire of her about doing an ekkie painting.... :-).
If you look at the little cards she does, you'll also see a beautiful hyacinth (the one I was outbid on last night went for over $53! I'm hoping for a better result next time....), a stunning BG, and a gorgeous little sun conure. She's pretty prolific, and cranks those things out on a fairly regular basis. I'm sure she'd be open to more suggestions if it might get her yet one more sale!

Yeah, I like it lots, 'tho' Dog knows where I'll find wall space for it :-).
Watercolor is a difficult medium to work with--you have to plan well in advance how you're going to bring a work to life, and then you have to get the timing and technique down just so, or it just doesn't look right. It's not a forgiving medium, either--because the colors are translucent, you can't just paint over the top of a mistake and have it disappear, like you can with oils or acrylics. More work in the planning than the execution, in some ways, and you have to get it right the first time. Some people (like me! LOL!) don't seem to know when they're done, and things look overworked. This artist seems to have it down to a very fine art.
