Such outstanding works. Here is a quick impressionist piece "Feeding 3" Bee Eater and chicks.
With Sarah, Phil, Ellen, Rose the dentist, and the granddaughter whose name I forget.

Skylar, do you have Bee-eaters in the USA?  I have a feeling they can be found in southern Africa, but don't know how much farther their distribution goes: not to here in GB, sadly.  I say 'sadly', but I imagine the bees are a quite happy about it.

I have met Bee eaters in East Africa and one way off course here in Wales with all the twitters on high alert .  The US  has amazing birds so I expect it is.  ,nice one Skylar.

This I very good Jennifer you need to put it on the gallery where it will be seen by more people and get feedback from them , It would be a shame not to share it . It’s too nice to be left on here an go relatively unnoticed.

Your welcome Jennifer it does take time to find your way around but it’s worth persevering as it’s a great site to be on.  Have you looked at the form thread that we run each week displaying two artists work its really worth a look and do join in . It’s call Inspiration from Artists , you don’t have to know a lot about art , look at the artwork on line choose one or more you like and say why you like it . If you have a favourite artist let me know and I will add them to the list then when they come up you give a brief intro to them , great fun and a lot of learning and excellent paintings to view. You don’t need to comment if you don’t want to just look at the artwork.

Alex you need to put your paintings in the gallery where it will be seen by more people and they can comment. We don’t normally post paintings on the forum unless you want a critique or advice on techniques etc.  It can be difficult to Know what to do and where things go when your new to a site. It a nice little sketch put it on for more to see .

We do invite the monthly challenge images to be shared in the forum thread - it's great to see them in the gallery too though!
