I'm sharing Fun Facts about the birds I have painted!

Today is the Western Tanager 🔥

Fun Fact #2
Western Tanagers travel thousands of miles between their winter homes in Central America and breeding grounds in the western United States.
That little bird in your backyard may have flown farther than many people travel in a year.

How crazy is that? Stay tuned for more fun facts and the launch of the Bird by Bird Collection!

✨Coming Soon: Bird by Bird✨

A new collection of original paintings inspired by Colorado's native birds is almost ready to take flight.

This series is about more than birds, it's about slowing down, noticing beauty, and moving forward one small step at a time.

My email subscribers will receive first access to the collection before the public release.

I thought it would be fun to share some "Fun Facts" about the birds in my Bird by Bird Collection.

First up, the Mountain Bluebird! đź’™

Fun Fact #1
Did you know the brilliant blue color of a Mountain Bluebird's feathers isn't actually caused by blue pigment?
The blue comes from the microscopic structure of the feathers, which scatters light and reflects blue wavelengths back to our eyes, similar to the way the sky appears blue.

Isn't that fascinating?! Stay tuned for more fun facts and the launch of the Bird by Bird Collection!

Here’s another part of the story behind these birds that I haven’t shared yet.

A few weeks ago, I had knee replacement surgery and had to take a break from standing at my easel and working on larger paintings while I recovered.

This wasn’t my first knee replacement, so I knew what was ahead: lots of resting, icing, physical therapy, and patience.

Before surgery, I thought these small bird paintings might be something I could work on in short spurts when I felt up to sitting at the table with a brush in hand. As it turns out, they were exactly what I needed.

One bird at a time.

As the collection grew, the title Bird by Bird began to take on a deeper meaning for me. Inspired by Anne Lamott’s book, it became a reminder that overwhelming things become manageable when we take them one small step at a time.

One bird at a time.�One day at a time.�One step at a time.

These little Colorado birds became unexpected companions during recovery, and I’m excited to share more of the collection with you soon.

Something new is taking flight in the studio…

Lately I’ve been painting native Colorado birds; small moments of color, personality, and presence.

I keep thinking about the phrase “Bird by Bird,” inspired by one of my favorite books by Anne Lamott and the reminder that overwhelming things become manageable when we take them one small step at a time.

One brushstroke.�One painting.�One bird at a time.

This new collection has quietly become about more than birds for me.
More to come…
