Eastern bluebird

This weekend I finished a commission for an original watercolour painting of an eastern bluebird. I decided to try a square format for this one and I like how it turned out. As before, I use sepia pen & ink first before painting.

The original painting will be a gift for a 1-year old, which I think is a really lovely idea.

Hi Claire, Jamie sent me here to have a look. I am her next-door neighbour and she thought I might be interested because I am an illustrator, a knitter and I also live in a bungalow. Next time you're at Jamie's place, get her to bring you over to say hello.

That is just lovely - and how perfect it looks with your header, and your avatar!

This is so lovely Claire. And I'm really geeked about all the home projects you've been posting. Being a fairy new first-time homeowner myself, and living in a fixer upper, I love to see these sort of things! SO much fun! Your living room looks great!
