I am finishing up on my Mountain Bluebird piece - I should have it done tomorrow sometime. I’ll post the final image of the painting as soon as I can.

I have been painting on this new miniature wolf painting for part of today — I started working on it a few days ago. I’ve added a photo of the inital sketch for the piece in this post (I am currently working on the painting in it’s color phase). The wolf in this painting does not have the typical grey wolf patterns — it is a white wolf. The fur will be painted in a warm ivory color. This type of wolf is not very common, so I was very pleased to have the opportunity to study it in person.When it’s finished, this wolf painting will be showing in the "Little Jewels" miniature exhibition in Jackson Hole at Galleries West Fine Art.

This is how my watercolor painting of the Mountain Bluebird and Indian Paintbrush wildflowers are looking at the moment. I will be bringing out more of the habitat around the bird before it’s finished — but it is nearly complete.The painting is 5×7 inches.

We headed off bright and early this morning for a photoshoot in the northwoods of Minnesota to get some new references. Unfortunately, we ran into some fairly poor conditions (there is a stand of trees in the very center of the photo that shows as a faint grey because of the heavy snow falling and blowing) for reference gathering, and had to return to the studio empty handed.

It has been quite a while since my last post. My apologies to all of my regular visitors — I have been a little under the weather. I over did it during our fall/winter show while trying to get everything done. I will try to add ‘catch-up’ posts soon.
As for what is going on at the moment, I am making the final adjustments to my mountain bluebird commission. It should be finished soon. I am also working on my pieces that will debute at Galleries West’s miniature show "Little Jewels". This gallery exhibition is my last deadline of the year, so a little relief is in sight

I just found out my painting of this barred owl found a new home during the presale (before the official show opening) at Whistle Pik Galleries’ 10th annual Christmas Miniature Show in Texas. Some day I would like to visit their show. I have been a part of their holiday show for a number of years now, but have never actually visited the gallery. I hear it’s very nice.
Thanks to Whistle Pik for their support and comments!! We appreciate it!!
