Heart & Feathers

"Heart & Feathers" -- oil on canvas 12x12" -- Margie Guyot


It's snowing like mad and I don't have TV reception, so it's been a great time to be painting in the studio!  I love painting this red Carnival glass heart.  It's kind of a killer, as far as difficulty goes.  Every tiny change in your position affects how it reflects.  Notice the orange shadows it's casting on the crumpled paper?  


And I love wild turkey feathers!  Lots of wild turkeys all over the place up here and I pick them up (the feathers, not the turkeys!).  I think they're fascinating.  


Painting crumpled paper is kind of fun.  Maddening-fun, that is!  But it beats shoveling snow.
