Lewis's Woodpecker at Ankeny
Just spend the morning over there yesterday. Great day. We got a glimpse of a Lewis's Woodpecker--my very first. Plenty of Acorn Woodpeckers. A Rough-legged Hawk. Red-tails. Immature Baldies. Countless sparrows. Lots of Bluebirds and Killdeer. Herons, Egrets, Pintails, Coots, one...- birdpotter

Man I am really digging that landscape. True to your form, Tim. What's with the sharpie work? When did that start? I just bought a huge set of sharpies...okay, it was for halloween...and am wondering if I should get them out and start messing around. xoxo- birdpotter

New Thread For Birdpotter
Colleen, I have seen so much of the "pedestrian stuff" lately. Some of it is very nice, but everyone, of course, is doing it, so there is less than a handful that actually stand out. Thanks for your compliments! Hey, you're only a state away! Drive up and pick out whatever you'd like. I'll...- birdpotter

New Thread For Birdpotter
Thanks guys! Working in a gallery where many artists come in to drop off or pick up work-signing in and out, I have noticed a massive number of lefties. It makes me feel not so alone in this big right-handed world. Someday, we will rise up and conquer! Power to the lefties! Wait, I don't...- birdpotter

Here's a small fountain. I'm messing with the idea. It's a test fountain. And yes, it looks like a frickin' ashtray, I know. So if the fountain doesn't work then I'll just add it to my collection. Peace out Homies.- birdpotter

New Thread For Birdpotter
Here are a few mugs that I am trying out. I like them. This is the first 'batch'. Unfortunately, because I am left-handed, as I created them, I forgot that there were right-handed people out there, so...well, if you hold a mug with your right hand, you might get poked in the eye. I made a...- birdpotter

Love these snipe sketches. I love the gestural feel to them and the accuracy which you are so good at. I think we are losing our snipe. Or at least they are keeping well hidden. Most people don't even know they exist.- birdpotter

Tim, primal and iconic is exactly what I want from these birds. Thank you...you know me too well. I like bird #3 too...it has a quality of depth in the clay that I enjoy. Thank you Colleen, I really like the shininess of the first one too...I don't use that glaze much, but when I do, I make...- birdpotter

Oh, and I love that everyone saw birds in that painting. Just recently I created some test ornaments for some holiday showcase coming up. They were suppose to be non-objective. I was to make the shapes and a friend is going to paint them. Well, guess what they look like? No, not...- birdpotter

A"ight my Homies. Here are a few things. I'll get photos of the other stuff in a day or so. I think I am going to start putting my birds on branch like pedestals. I finally have the time to work the clay in a patient manner, meaning I won't feel rushed to get something out, which I've been...- birdpotter

Your sketches are some of my favs too Mike. Wow, I really loved the plein air landscapes...they made me tear up a bit because I am sitting inside working (well, obviously not 'working' just sitting here waiting for people to walk in off the street to look at art) and it is beautiful outside. I...- birdpotter

The skua is fantastic, Tim. I've given up on looking back on ALL the ones I've missed. And in doing so, there is a marked difference, some kind of evolution, in your work. Mmmmm, your watercolors make me drool. And regarding this little artist community, I, for one, am grateful for it. Even...- birdpotter

only one Here's only one painting I've been working on this term. The photo makes it a little washed out. I've gone all non-objective on yo' asses. I have 3 more weeks of school and then I can get back to clay--for good. I guess I really should send some photos of the finished products of...- birdpotter
