I've been working on illustrations the past two days, so haven't really done anything to post--and then I remembered this drawing! It was done about 4 1/2 years ago in a style I have worked in off and on for many years. I really like drawing like this, love the shading, love getting nuances. This drawing is a reflection of the mystery that nighttime, outside and alone, holds for me. Did you notice the figure in the upper left? (Alot of people miss that!)

Whew! THAT (above) was a mouthful for such a little piece! As titled, this image came from watching the swans one evening at our downtown Mirror Pond. The reflection of the sunset on the water made it such a romantic visual! The prints are hand-painted, so there is a little variation in each one. Basically, though, the story is the same: the sunset is reflecting on the water as the swan grooms itself. Each print is numbered and signed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Back to the "archives"! I had to work on illustrations today so decided to post this little painting that I did quite some time ago. Swans are a big part of downtown Bend. I love the sound they make as they fly--powerful!

Just a lovely sight, watching the swans groom themselves in the morning light. . . .
