I felt weird combining shells and leaves...because I think to myself, well they don't go together and no one will like it or want to buy it. Yet I did two small pieces last year with shells and moss ( they were snail shells I picked up in Hawaii)...and they sold rather quickly. Part of my drive to paint does have to do with approval...wether I want to admit it or not. It's when I let that feeling take over that I start to lose something...so before I start getting to introspective or philosophical let me stop here....

Here it is.. and it is a wow! Very nice, subtle. Love the title.
(I have a photo of a dead bird in the fence. Evidently fell down between the slats and couldn't get out. Oh, the agony. Anyhoo, I din't want to post it on my blog, ooooeeeee, but would send it to you, heh, heh.)

Jo,
I come from a family of hunters ..although I don't hunt myself I find much beauty in fallen animals. "The Trumpeter Swan" by Alexander Pope is one of my favorite paintings....I'll add a link to this when I have some more time.
