THETAWAVES :: Painting Daily


After pelicans and egrets, I started to paint other birds. These owl paintings were opportunities to paint beautiful birds in breathtaking landscapes. I can't imagine a more perfect combination of subjects for an artist to paint than birds and landscapes. Everyone should try it!

In 2006, I started to paint owls. I painted the Great Snowy White owl first, then the Great Grey. They were my Christmas cards for 2006. (24" x 48")

The eagle, like the wolf, is a favorite subject for artists who love to paint wildlife in the snow. I call this Glacier Eagle. It was my Christmas card for 2005.

The wolf family was painted in 2003. Lots of artists were painting wolves, an endangered species that has been reintroduced to the wild places where they were hunted nearly to extinction. They are to me a symbol of hope and redemption.

Since it's Christmas, I thought I would post my Christmas cards here from years past. This one is from 2004.
