Last month I did a sketch of this hummingbird as a preliminary study for a larger painting which is now the poster for the Indian Wells Arts Festival. (See Sept 24th post) I've been looking at the sketch and kept thinking that the bird on the plain blue sky needed some clouds and mountains to make the painting feel complete. So, I had to add them. Now, the sketch is a bird flying over the mountains in Palm Springs....a bird with a background and a sense of place. This 9" x 11"unframed watercolor on Arches 300# paper is available for $275 on my website

My new show entitled "Heaven is a '57" opened with the Artist Reception last night at IncredibleArtist.com in Palm Springs. The gallery is unusual in that it stays open late. It's not uncommon for the majority of sales for the day to take place after 10PM. It was a fun crowd with many friends and watercolor enthusiasts stopping by to say hello. We sold three originals. That's always fun, too! The show runs through March 29th. Go to IncredibleArtist.com for more info.
