Thinking about this robin again.  Revisited it.  More texture, text.  Still a little surprised that I’ve turned into a bird watcher.  My great grandmother had a clock with a different bird on each of the hours.  The clock would make that bird’s call at the top of each hour.  I think it was a 90s version of “as seen on TV”, and I never much cared for it.  I thought it a silly gadget the elderly seem to treasure. And now I can’t stop thinking about birds, looking at them and for them.  Thinking of my great grandmother sitting in her recliner watching the time pass to the synthetic sounds of birds.

Another daily painting.  Feeling myself getting back into the rhythm of sowing.  Perhaps reaping.
