Nene

16 x 20 inches - oil on canvas board - The story about this bird is interesting especially for Canadians like me. Apparently a long time ago, Canadian Geese got off course and landed in Hawaii. Over many generations they evolbed into the current Nene.

 

Lynx

Trouble

Losing Patience

 8 x 8 inches - oil on canvas board - I know that they will be here (eventually) but....damn! I have been working on a series of small paintings about cats waiting at doors. Don't ask. It's the way my mind works. For me it is helpful to practice a similar topic as a series. 

Do I Know You?
