Bird and Fiddleheads by Andrew Daniel

When I lived in Maine it was a seasonal practice to go collecting "Fiddleheads" which were young ferns that had not yet uncoiled and were still tender for saute cooking. I thought of putting them in the back of this little watercolor painting as a little way to remind me of my roots.
I think the bird is a Wren, but I would love to hear from you if you have a better guess.
IF you are interested in purchasing this piece or finding out more about it, please take a look at my Etsy Shop.

"Abandoned Shed" by Ralphie Hendrix
Click to BidThis is from a photo I took while out on Table Bluff Road a few years back. I was struck by the intense light in the foreground with the wonderful autumn colors in back of the shed. I guess this was a horse pasture at one time but was falling down when I saw it. I primarily paint from photographs as I'm getting older, and somewhat gimpy. These days my work is done in my studio.

Pink Rhododendrons by Andrew Daniel

Every year as the flowers start to bloom, I end up painting them, because I love the color and compositional opportunities that they bring. I also really enjoy the process of wandering around my community looking for inspiration! I'm particularly happy with this canvas because of the movement in the brush stoke, there is a certain raw kinetic energy to it.
IF you are interested in purchasing this painting or other cards and prints please take a look at my Etsy Shop. SOLD
