The ordinary arts we practice every day at home are of more importance to the soul than their simplicity might suggest ~ Sir Thomas Moore ~

Birdtober ......

Last month I participated in a fun "art challenge" called Birdtober 2024.
There was a Prompt list for each day of October with the name of a bird.
I started a fresh art journal and decided on a page layout ~ ultimately deciding on a two-page spread with a headshot, egg study, feather meaning, nesting habits and some notes on each bird.  It was so much fun to do, and the bonus was learning about birds I don't normally paint. I embellished the pages with a pressed flower from my garden attached with washi tape.  I'm not sure how I will fill in the remainder of the pages left in the art journal ... maybe I will just paint the birds at our feeder this month (there have been so many) and add some favourite bird quotes. 
I hope you enjoy looking through the pages xo
