My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

52 projects...week 3~

http://52paintedhouseprojects.blogspot.com/


~meet my little birdy~

we received our canvas and metalic and glitter watercolors this week
so we did lots of painting...
i had high hopes of creating a canvas piece but only got the painting part done
so the other day while the little ones were finishing up i noticed i was doodling
that doodling led to what was suppose to be a birdy in a nest
yet rather looks to be a goose or a duck...
do they sit in nests too??


so as yesterday rolled on by
 i felt even less there motivation to try and complete
(remember all are sick)
my project for the week
that canvas piece
yet
a little birdy kept calling
i felt compelled to try again


not so shabby
i think this little one looks more along the lines
of a wee little birdy
so with one little wee birdy
sitting peacefully in its nests
i sat and i thought
hhhmmm....
what else?


how about a little color

What a lovely image! It conjures the anticipation I hold so gently for springtime!

I love the bird! With all this snow we are having, that image reminds me that spring will come again :)0

Lovely pictures, very simple yet really effective.

Looks like we were both in a sketchy mood this week for our projects - except that yours actually looks like the object you wanted to sketch!!! Lovely. :)

Rue said...

So pretty - I liked the first bird too. Ducks do nest as well, but usually in long grasses by the shoreline (at least, where I live!)

I love birds! That was an awesome birdie :)

Annie Z said...

Wonderful! I do love your ability to draw. And such a sweet little bird. Needless to say, drawing won't be in any of my 52 Projects!

Goodness Faerwillow I don't know where to start commenting on all these gorgeous posts. Each one I linger over to reflect on your quotes, then I read the recipes, or the explanations on the moon's phases etc... It is truly a joyful journey. So I stop to rest here at the nest of your beautifully coloured birdies and think - ours have stopped singing, it must be time for bed. Much love and blessings...

Mr B beat me to the Marley lyrics. Perfect. Lovely drawings, and I think that you made them better each time. I'd probably have gone downhill.
