This painting was sold before it hit the blog, but I wanted to post it anyway.

Saw this little guy in the broken fir right out the studio window. I love these little birds with their cocked short tails and big heads, a sizzling voice that just goes on and on, like a kettle on the stove but more musical. They defend their little forest area from all comers, even me if I get too close. I’ve had them actually jump on my boot, as if a bird that weighs less than an ounce can have some effect on an intrusive boot.
