So this post is comes on the tail end (I hope) of my cold from heck. I have been seriously lacking energy lately but this week I did manage to accomplish a submission for the Ripple blog. If you haven’t been there I heartily encourage you to visit. All the artwork (most in the form…
The last couple of weeks have been pretty rough. My desktop power supply was fried during a storm, I caught a major cold that I’m still trying to kick, hit a deer with my car, fell holding my camera so now the anti-shake on the lens malfunctions and had to complete wipe the drive on…
Lists – checkBusiness plan – checkNow it’s time for some artwork! The goals for weeks 4,5 & 6 was to create 2 pieces of art each week. I didn’t get nearly as much work done as I’d hoped to, but I like what I have so it balances out. I had a lot of art…

I decided to change the bird’s coloring and head slightly so that it looked more realistic. I love peacocks and have quite a few photos that I’ve used as reference. Still, I took some artistic license with the crown of feathers on the head as I liked the longer more flowing version I had already…
If you are an avid follower I’m sure you’ve caught on by now that I’ve changed the name of this piece yet again. I’d apologize, but that’s pretty much the way I’m hard-wired. I have a very tough time deciding on names!! Just consider the evolving name another part of the process and enjoy the…
