These sweet little cardinals nest here every year, and I get to watch those babies grow to raise their own families, too. I pulled out a selection of cardinal paintings for a patron to choose her favorite. She selected this one, which I had never posted. I used very heavy watercolor board at a time when I was newly exploring the medium. It didn't feel finished, and is a little different than my usual work. I'm so happy it found a home where it will be cherished as a remembrance of her mother. Painting number 4716 in 4716 days.
