It's fun to draw birds every now and then. I seem to be brought back to birds and trees for the most part. Might as well give them a strange personality too.
4x6" Rabbit card : This is the time of year for rabbits. I lived in Ohio at one time. There is a town called Richfield that I used to visit in the fall. Every year, A friend and I would go to the Turkey-Shoot events held in that general area. No --- ! We did not shoot turkeys off fence posts 😀😀😀 If you are not from a place that has these events then, click here , and ( Richfield Ohio Amvets ) to read up on the fun you can have competing with others to win a Thanksgiving ham or Turkey among other things. It's yet another way to enjoy an activity on the weekend with the family. This area also grew the best apples I've ever had. We would buy them by the big baskets in the fall.

The biggest reason I did not want a relation with them is the fees the site has in place. Yes, they do charge you a lot to sell an item. However, the other storefront venues have so many hidden fees and constant, in your face come-on to buy, upgrade.. more more more, that you are only giving them a bunch of your money, and you still need to do all the work. Turns out that ebay is not so bad after all. So, here is the first batch of artworks to go up over there. A short on one of these pieces: My wife and I were on a hike high in the Colorado mountains. I saw this one type of plant and it caught my attention. Without my camera, it became a game of trying to recall how the plant looked later on while sitting at my art table. I had only a blurred impression left in my mind. I drew this piece from that. I am sure the real plant...
