Returning home from a visit of several days at our home in Lob Lolly Cove, we find lots of good soaking rain and snow.  It’s good to be home.

Wildlife in the cove were very active, spring fever, I think.  Anyway, as usual the Crows were always in convention, with the Pileated Woodpecker coming in at a close second. The Great Blue Heron, visited, dunked for his breakfast, in the shallow end of the pond and went on his way.  The Fox Squirrel made his breakfast from tiny, wild cherry leaves at the pond’s edge.

All this is inspiring, gives my mind a rest, and brings me home with new zeal to paint what I know and love.  This painting below is inspired by the scene from the kitchen window at the cove.

I invite you to sign up for the Valle of Yellow Creek Art Studio E-Zine in the sign up box above.  It is filled with helpful artist tips, no matter which medium you use, Musings and Special Events.  Published on the first and third Saturday of each month.

Keep on keeping on with paint brush in hand!

Cordially,

Ellene Breedlove Davis
