Mr Tambourine Man- The Byrds

Mr Tambourine Man- The Byrds. I have been thinking of doing a series of musical instruments for awhile. My son is very musical; always writing songs and playing his guitar. I can't help thinking of him when I paint these subjects. The ellipses were very challenging. It's not perfect but a good representation! Haha.

TAKIN' IT TO THE STREETS by THE DOOBIE BROTHERS

Hold on Tight- Electric Light Orchestra

Hold on Tight- Electric Light Orchestra....ELO...This is the third painting of hummingbirds......phew...done with that category. I choose 10 subjects for the 30 Paintings in 30 Days. Ten subjects of 3 each. I am behind on my posting for the 30 Paintings but still painting every day possible. How many of us sang along with this song making up words as we went with the French part of it. Haha. Love these little birds.

Tiny Dancer-Elton John

Tiny Dancer-Elton John. Day 2 of 30 Paintings in 30 Days. I am a little behind...but hope to catch up this week. This is the second hummingbird I plan to do of three. My fellow artist Susan and I decided to pick ten categories and paint three subjects of each category. I am hoping it helps me decide more quickly what to paint!!! Sometimes that is the hardest of all.......What the hell am I going to paint! The other one already has a few bids on Daily Paintworks! Click Here to Bid on this one.

Hummingbird-Seals and Crofts

Day 1 of 30 Paintings in thirty days. I have wanted to do a hummingbird for awhile. I just love how they whir and flit around. In Guatemala I had a daily visit from a few different varieties. My little guy would visit my feeder and then sit on the razor wire in the back yard. I could always see him from the kitchen window. Sometimes I thought the wind would just blow him away but he was vigilantly guarding his feeder.
