It is still Sunday here...in 30 minutes it will be Monday. Sunday is usually my day of rest from painting and most other things as well, but I cooked several recipes (well, 3 recipes) for enough food to last awhile so I will be pretty free to paint the next few days. One recipe was homemade chicken soup some of which I will freeze for later. Yes, cooking is creative too ! Yesterday I began two new paintings and hopefully they will be dry enough to work on again tomorrow morning. Below are my reference photos for those new works.
Bee having a blast in a cereus cactus flower
Lesser Flamingos
The photo of the Lesser Flamingos (which are native to Africa and Asia) I captured at the Honolulu Zoo. I may paint it soon, but it is not the reference for the painting I began yesterday; the computer gave me a hard time uploading the correct photo. The more I think about it now, this might be a better painting than the one I began on Saturday :-)
There are 4 other paintings I have begun that are in various stages of development that I will also be concentrating on in between waiting for current works to dry before continuing them. I just felt the urge to do some wildlife again .
Wish me happy painting the rest of the week !
