  5. This is so beautiful, the colours remind me of expensive delicate porcelain, so clear and zingy. I hope you take this as a compliment in the best William Morris way if I say what gorgeous wallpaper it would make, fit for a palace.

  6. Delighted to hear, first of all, that Werther's are available over there and even more that the waxwings enjoy them. Another cracking picture.

  7. Nora - your wax wing is lovely - imagine werther's original - love the color you used in the background. I spotted my first wax wings this year. They are a lovely bird. You are a girl after my own heart because I love birds and watch for them - have a wonderful day.

  11. Gorgeous artwork, love the vibrant colours with the black ink. (well actually I always love vibrant colours but the ink sets them off ) Love this piece and love your relaxed style. I'm sure there is a proper description :) Enjoy the week, Shirley

  13. I said it before, but with these bird paintings you really kicked in a new gear, bolder colors and they really "pop", well done.

  20. Such a wonderful fanciful design. The color and line compliment one another perfectly.
    I just saw lots of cedar waxwings in northern Minnesota. I was with a couple of birders who pointed them out.
