lemons & birds: through the looking glass



I am painting a new series involving thousands of different species of birds lately, & it seems to be flying into everything I do. I will post about those works very soon. In the meantime, I wanted you to see the revamping of a large old mirror collecting dirt in our garage, coated with a particularly undesirable shade of dark brown paint. I decided to paint it all white with birds perched on lemon tree branches, & was pleased with the result.

    one of your paintings is already saved as my desktop---i have such joy in seeing it every day.

    love from leila
