Brown Pelican

This is one 6" tile, another in the series of Florida Water Birds tiles I am painting for a client. I have really enjoyed this project, living in Florida as I do. When I told the client there were 480 birds in Florida, which ones did he want? He gasped, then said, "Do some water ones, you choose." That's what I like, letting me pick the ones I enjoy looking at lol.

Flamingo

Here is another tile in the Florida Water Birds series.

Great Blue Heron

This is one 6" tile of a series I am doing for a client, all Florida water birds.

Arctic loon

This is a 6" tile I just completed to go with the Canadian wilderness mural. It will be mounted in a cheese board, showing off the mural as a kitchen accent.

The mural is complete!

I am pleased and proud when I gaze at this huge mural laying out on my worktable. More importantly, the client is pleased. I was less than confidant when I began, as the recession had hit me hard. But the people were great to work with, which ALways helps, and I felt my old passion and confidence return almost immediately. I call it my masterwork, for several reasons, one of which is the slim likelihood I will ever do a project this huge again. Not because I do not want to---bring it on! :)

A Masterwork

Shame on me for sharing a project before it is completed, I have never done that before now. But I am so excited about this huge mural of a Canadian wilderness. It is a romantic place where a lovely couple got engaged, and I have gotten caught up in their excitement. I will post more images when it is finished. Wish me luck!
