Painting Sandpipers

"Winkin', Blinkin' and Nod"

I love sandpipers and have taken

many photos to work from of them whenever I

see them at the beach...

Am in the midst of this ink and watercolor

and now must decide about the background...

sometimes that's the most difficult for I 

don't want to overdo it.

Over at my shells and roses blog you can see
something else I've been working on

Thanks!
