Anna's Hummingbird

Back in about 2004, a first year Anna's Hummingbird started showing up at a feeder in Central Ohio.  I did a painting of it for a certificate that was given by the Ohio Ornithological Society to the person who allowed hordes of birders on their property to view this lovely bird.  The original is for sale and is presented here for your viewing pleasure.

Lady Slipper Orchid

My most recent painting is of a Lady Slipper. The Lady Slipper is an Orchid found in most of North America as well as parts of Europe and Asia. Growing up in Minnesota, I knew it as the state flower. I think this might be why it has been one of my favorite wild flowers. 

5" x 5"  Mixed media,  SOLD

White-headed Woodpecker

Except for a small pocket in the mountains of southern California, this is a Northwest specialty woodpecker.  This is why he is the star of our central Oregon woodpecker festival.  The Dean Hale Woodpecker Festival is held every June and is put on by the Central Oregon Audubon Society. 

White Headed woodpeckers are quite stunning and unique in behavior and appearance.  They are fairly common in their mountain range and in my county, they are common nesters above 4,000 feet.  They are about the size of a Hairy Woodpecker with glossy black back and very distinctive white patch near the wingtips that display nicely in flight.  The males have a red patch toward the back of the head.

Image Size is 4" x 4"  mixed media on arches watercolor paper.  $75
