"Gone Wild Turkey" Painting In the Paper This Week

Yep. That's my turkey.

The June 8 edition of the Great Falls Connection reports on the three Great Falls Studios bird exhibits currently on view.

My wild turkey (that won an honorable mention for best depiction of a wild turkey) and Eastern bluebird painting ("Blue" that won Best in Show) are on exhibit at the Great Falls Library, 9830 Georgetown Pike, Great Falls, VA until the end of June.

I sure had fun taking a look. It's a wildly imaginative show. Not at all what you would expect. There are portraits of woodpeckers in oil and ceramic. There's a wood sculpture of a bevy of bluebirds. A photo of bluebird cookies.

I'm off to paint now and will also be posting photos of my ink wash drawings from Lake Anne in Reston later on today.
