Description
I had the pleasure of seeing this male Costa hummingbird and the baby while they each lived in our backyard for two years. I named the male "Kevin Costa" for some reason! They have since moved on. This painting would make a wonderful companion print to "Baby Makes Three", and my new one, "Three For Breakfast".
Thank you for stopping by my gallery! I am currently residing in Arizona and have previously exhibited in galleries in Arizona and Wisconsin. Having lived in both states, it has given me very diverse subject matter as is evident in the variety of art pieces I have posted here. I also have appeared in several art shows in both states and received various awards, including the Wisconsin Regional Art Show Travelling Exhibit Award for my watercolor 'Spring In Tlaquepaque'. While working for the Dean Medical Center in Madison, WI, I completed several commission pieces to be displayed in their clinics ('Comin' Home', 'The Catch', 'Little Mill', and Christine's Ride'). I also created their employee birthday card for several years in a row. I hope you will enjoy viewing my artwork. Just click on each gallery to view the art in that category, then click on any image to enlarge it.
