I took a class on Saturday in which everyone was using the same reference to paint chickadees, so of course, I wanted to do something different. I changed a photo of some chickadees and painted the birds in the style the instructor was teaching. My little chickadees were HORRIBLE!
When I get to that place that I give up on a painting, I figure, what the hell, and start "playing." I pulled out the foam stamp we made in Myrna Wachnov's workshop, and imprinted my little chickadees with the block. Interesting, yes. But worth resurrecting, I don't think so. Still, it was a fun way to "blot" out my mini-disaster.

Well, from the novice eye I really like what you did--there's both abstract and detail. And I love the colors!
