TAD Aviary

 Greetings!

Today is TAD with Rain and the theme is Aviary. I thought I would do a quick draw of some birds but ran out of time and decided to go with birds I have already created.

This is the door to my art room

 
 
These are birds I have created over the years.


 

 



 



 


 


 You know I am a bit macabre.


 This piece sold almost immediately


 It lives here in a beautiful home on the great lakes.


 


 


A strange and beautiful land


 This is a very old piece I created in the 1980s. It is bone covered with Huichol  beading. How perfect is the stone for the eye?

Made with my Nicole's BeadBacking. I use this at Halloween. I miss my business.

Be sure to stop by Rain's to see what else is going on there.

  4. I'd love to have a crow visit us, but no such luck. We've heard if you attract blue jays the crows will follow, but we have blue jays and crows nearby but no crows descend to our patio *sigh*

  14. Beautiful grouping of birds ... I think you have a fondness for the blackbird, yes? They are all lovely and sorry about your business. What happened to it? Be well Nicole ...

  15. This is from Barbara. It’s so other-worldly, great imagination! The piece of a strange and beautiful land has a great deal of eerie atmosphere. It should inspire a movie set!
