Sorrow of Indian Summer She asked if I had any memories / I lie and utter yes, a couple. / How sad that must be for you, / I lie and utter no. / Do you miss her, / I lie and utter no. / Is the soul swallowing darkness / deep within my icey gaze / not transparent enough? / It is so sad, I am so sorry for you, / I lie and utter thanks. / Dead is dead, matters not how, or why, or who. / Once gone, forgotten or not, / dead is dead, woman or beast, / least of least, rest in peace.

I love the beauty of these Buckeye Butterflies. Only God could create something this beautiful.
A whitetail doe fusses over her fawn. Dryden, ON. / Olymus SP510 UZ Group Feature: / Deer Me !!! – April 13, 2009 Top Ten: / Deer Me !!! Spring’s Most Beautiful Challenge – April 13, 2009 !
Featured in – The Birds, February 7, 2009 I can’t help but dream of summer, and much warmer temperatures, when I look at this image. This piece consists of 6 layers (the background, 5 different layers of pretty lavender blooms, and an adorable little american goldfinch). After merging all of the layers in PhotoShop I digitally painted the entire piece in Corel Painter X. My intent with the goldfinch was to make her look like a baby, that had just left the nest, and was still looking for Mom to bring her some food. / / Fine Art Gallery / Bird Gallery / ADD RENEE TO YOUR WATCHLIST
930 views as of Nov. 13, 2009 Featured in The Birds – Feb. 15, 2009 / I can almost feel it. Spring is JUST around the corner. It’s such an exciting time in Canada after a long and cold winter. The lilac trees bloom putting forth the sweetest scent and the hummingbirds return to our property after a long migration. Yes, Spring will be here before we know it. I can’t wait! I spent countless HOURS last summer, sitting in a lawn chair, ever so patiently waiting to try & capture one of these little darlings in flight. They are only 7-9 cm long. While hovering their wings beat 55x/s, 61x/s when moving backwards, and at least 75x/s when moving forward! / / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—— / Processing info: / This image started out with 3 photograph layers (the lilac background image, a female ruby-throated hummingbird, and the tail from a different photo of the same bird). I took all of the original images with my Canon DSLR. After removing the background around the original bird photos I merged all of the layers in PhotoShop. I digitally painted/blended the entire image in Corel Painter X using the Impasto Depth Smear brush at 30% opacity. I cloned out a distracting branch in the upper left corner and performed blend # 2 work on the main lilac blooms, hummingbird, and the largest leaves using grainy blender 10 brush at 38% opacity. / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—- / Bird Gallery / ADD RENEE TO YOUR WATCHLIST
While out cleaning and mulching the flower beds, I noticed this little guy on a branch. So I decided to take a break near the tree with camera in hand. I sat very still and quiet and it wasn’t long until he was back. I didn’t even realize his eyes were red until I pulled up the image on the computer screen. We feed the birds year round and I love our winged visitors. Many thanks to Lynda McDonald for identifying this little guy as an Eastern Towhee, a songbird in the sparrow family.

Inspired by the last days of summer on Lake Texoma near my home in Texas. This artwork has been FEATURED in the “Impressionism Cafe” group! Here’s how it looks matted & framed in black:

This is a mixed media collage’ piece I did a few months ago. I uploaded the original one today in my watercolor and ink portfolio. Then this evening I started playing around with the work in GIMP and this is the result. It is simply an digitally inverted version of the original and I really like it! I entitled it “Inverted Seasons” because the original is entitled, “Frosted Windows”. The inverted version looks more spring like through the “windows”, thus the title. The seasons, as well as the art work are inverted. I think the 2 versions would look great printed and hung together! The original version was featured by Red Bubble on the home page features!
