Two New Birds

After a long vacation (can you call it a vacation if it was being stuck at home?), I am back at work. Because of the two shows, back to back, I didn't really have a reason to sit in an empty gallery. And, because I wasn't in the mood to paint, nothing much was accomplished except lots of reading of spiritual books. I could make lists of the wonderful, life-changing books that I think everyone should read...but I won't at the moment. Here are the two new bird paintings that I recently finished.



Saint Donatus and the Destruction of the Temple.




Delilah and Her Dramatic Escape. I realized that there are so many Saints that I accidentally left out of my collection (with the help of some observant friends), so, I made a new list. My next two paintings are of Adam and Eve. How was it that I forgot them? Until later...
