India, 14x11" Oil

Today's painting was taken from a photo by Jeanna Jinks, while she was in India. From time to time we share pictures to paint to keep the creativity flowing. She's painted the same one and it came out beautifully. Her paintings always have strong color which makes them eye candy for anyone that loves color.

The painting below is my version of her picture.

I'm back

After the eye surgery, sinus infection, another sinus infection, and helping my mother in law during her recovery from double knee replacement, I am back to painting on a regular basis. As I said before, this did start out as a daily painting blog; producing paintings daily. Starting out like that has helped me to develop a routine that has morphed into a painting daily and producing a painting or two a week.
Luckily when I am running out of steam I have plenty of artist friends that fuel my inspiration. The next painting that I will be doing will be from another artist, Jeanna Jinks, trip to India. We both are painting the same image in our own way. I'll post it in a couple of days when I am through with it.

The painting posted here is from a pic I took at the Hattiesburg, MS zoo. These two parrots always seem to be squabbling at each other.
