It's in the mid-40's and misty this afternoon - not a day to go walk in the woods or hike on the pipeline. Instead it's workday in the studio. I'm almost ready to start painting a Great Blue Heron for a designer showhouse. To get in the mood, and to test my "equipment" I decided to do a quick painting of another smaller bird, which is today's entry. I'm glad I did the test because my watercolor brushes did not come out with high marks. Under magnification, a couple of the brushes had a serious "split end" look. No wonder I had trouble getting a good point on them. This morning I went straight out and spent mucho money on new sable brushes so I can finish this painting and move on to the big, important, financially "positive" one. Stay posted... I'll put the finished Wren here soon.
