One of Mom's passions.

I just finished  a "lyttle" project in the studio....I completed a 12 piece grid of 12" x 12" paintings.  It was great fun to do!
One of my earliest memories  was going into the aviary  with my mother.  She raised parakeets and canaries (along with 4 kids, dogs, sheep, horses and a few other critters).  The aviary  was just outside our back door and occasionally I was invited to go in with Mom....a very special deal for me!   The flutter, chirps and happenings of the birds always so impressed  me.  Mom even showed me how to get a bird to sit on my finger...wow!
So, this grid is a tribute to one of Mom's passions..birds.
Here is one of the pieces.

(I've used cockatoos instead of parakeets because I like to draw/paint them (artistic license).
