Norma Wilson Original Oil Marsh Wren Bird Aviary Art

Marsh Wren

6" by 6" original oil on gallery wrap canvas with sides painted.

I enjoyed painting this bird with all the subtle browns and colors all lit up in the sunlight. I can only imagine the sense of peace these creatures must feel. If only we spent our days focused on the moment that intensely. The times that we do like when we are watching a sunset, walking in the woods, looking into the eyes of a loved one, paying attention to our own breath, bring a feeling of peace and connectness. With practice and attention we can increase those moments throughout the day. Hope your day today is filled with many peaceful moments!

I really had such a productive day yesterday working on several paintings but I think this gal was my favorite. Such a proud face! It is so much fun being an artist because you never quite know what it going to happen when you put brush to canvas and begin to create a rapport with your subject. In the beginning it is pretty technical and formulaic but quickly after the initial lay in the wonderful dance begins. It is hard to describe but it is pretty terrific. Occasionally the dance is kind of rough and there is more stepping on each other feet happening but for the most part, even those times usually resolve happily if you take time to breathe and back up a bit. Well it is almost time for yoga class. Thanks for checking in with me!
