So there I was.. cleaning the studio, getting ready for the new year... and I couldn't help myself... I had to paint something. This little carved wooden bird was sitting on my window sill demanding attention... so I set him on my easel and went to work.. he is happy.. I am happy.. it's all good! :)

My New Year's resolutions are to live, love, laugh and paint more!! And I wish the same for all of you! Happy New Year!
