Big Blue Bird with Friends

This is a donation to the Portland Audubon Society. They’re having a fundraiser called Wild Arts Festival at Montgomery Park in November.
Art Media donated 6 x 6 canvases for artists to check out and make a piece of art. The theme is BIRDS. Perfect! All the 6 x 6 pieces will sell for $40 each at the fundraiser.

Notecards Now Available

Each Big Blue Bird painting is now available as a notecard (with a few exceptions). They are $3 each (notecard and envelope), and I'll pay the postage to get them to you. Please email me at lezbag [at] yahoo [dot] com. Coming soon, a Big Blue Bird calendar: a different Big Blue Bird for every month.
