Wishing you a happy Lunar New Year! Every year for Chinese New Year, I try to present artwork of the year's Zodiac animal, this time, it is year of the snake. I painted this one specifically to celebrate the new year. It is my first snake painting! In lilac purple hues and with big rainbow eyes, this cute snake has auspicious coils and is titled "Caihong Yan Zi She."
The original painting is duo oils on cradled wood and measures 7"x5"
If you are interested in the original please contact me. If you're interested in prints and aren't in a huge hurry, they are available if you'd like, please let me know.

The fluff and the grump...
Here are two rough sketches of Cuban Tody birds for day 29 of #birbfest2025. They were created with a mechanical pencil and an eraser in my sketchbook. One bird is smol and fluffy, the other bird is a wee bit grumpy.
I haven't completed a drawing every day for the challenge, but I've done a quick sketch as often as I had a chance. I plan on creating some paintings from a selection of these birbs in the coming year...
