About Me
- Nan and =^..^=
- I'm an artist/illustrator specializing in ink and watercolors and photography. My little studio in Maine is nestled in our garden by a babbling brook. Everyday I draw inspiration from the pets who have touched my life, our garden, birds and wildlife critters, quaint old houses, children, shells, scenes of the seaside and more. Hope to share my art and observations with you and don't forget to take a moment to notice the precious little things around you.

You get some of the most beautiful birds. We had a male cardinal in our yard yesterday, along with five Robins - couldn't believe it! Are they confused? Have a nice day!
Thanks Purple Flowers! I know what you mean about seeing robins this early for we've had flocks of them, too!
Interesting to see the grey and red squirrel in the same picture! we had a big flock of robins fly through on Sunday while trying to shovel out from the snowstorm...heard them before i saw them...i sure hope they found something to eat.
