Lamb and Blue Wren

 

 

 

 

Oh wow.  This month has been so trying!  The weather is absolute crap, raining every day which makes it hard to get out and do any exercise.  My yard is a mess of weeds and I feel embarrassed every time I look at it.  I am definitely on the verge of getting out there and making it look nice again.  Feeling not so good mentally or physically.  Just waiting for some sunlight of the physical and metaphorical kind. 

 

This picture is one of my latest body of work.  I love lambs and it's lambing season right about now.  I also love Blue Wrens.  There was a Blue Wren that used to jump around the garden outside the kitchen window at my Nanna's house.  When I was on holiday there I would sit at the kitchen table and marvel at it's beautiful black and blue plumage.

I love drawing cats.  I wouldn't say I'm a 'cat mad' person but I have one and she is so mysterious to me that I feel compelled to draw versions of her.  She's so aloof yet loves to follow me around and get involved with whatever I'm doing, especially gardening.
