Nature Morte

Nature Morte; A Late Veery, oil on canvas, 30 x 24 inches
edited July 2, 2008: After reading Bruce Morrison's comment regarding the identity of this bird, I decided to change the title. It was formerly Nature Morte; Young Robin. Thank you Bruce!

Morning Light

The Shade Garden in May
When I was out watering this morning I kept my eyes open for a place to bury the robin. The light filtering through the bleeding hearts was so beautiful. And that area is fairly established - those plants won't need to be moved or divided for a time. So there the robin will rest.

Garage

Painting of a Late Young Robin in Progress (the painting is shown on its side)
The background won't stay so vibrant or so fuschia-colored but the bird is getting pretty close in form and color.
I duct-taped a couple of bamboo sticks to an upright pole. The tail is held between these two sticks to keep the bird from spinning.

Window

Sketch of a Late Young Robin, graphite on paper, 11 x 8.5 inches
I finally found my cruller doughnut at Rainbow Foods. When I got home with it, and strung it up, I took a break to look out my window. There, on the ground, was a dead bird. I'm not at all fastidious about cleaning my windows, but this bird was fooled anyway. The poor thing apparently dove into the glass. It looks like a young robin to me.
This really isn't the type of set-up to do in the stuido - so I'm painting in the garage tonight.
