Wild Goose Waltz, Canada Geese

"Wild Goose Waltz"

This Canada goose wants to waltz but he's got no takers!  How sad is that?

I like spending time along the Sun River, watching the wildlife that visit the area.  I was lucky, the day I took this photo, to see the geese performing on the ice.  It was right before sunset, and the glow of the setting sun shone on the ice.  I loved the monotone colors in this image.

We have photos and prints for your home in our Wildlife Indoors store.

Grey-blue nature.

Here are three of my photos in a similar range of colors.  I think they'd make a nice display on a wall and lend a sense of peace and the great outdoors to any home.

The top and bottom photos were taken near the truck stop, just outside Belt, Montana.  The river runs along there, and the scenery is beautiful.  I had Robert drop me off so I could walk along the river, looking for photos.

The little bird in the middle photo lives in our yard and eats seeds from the bird feeder.  She's very friendly but doesn't allow us to get  close to her.  So I take photos where I can get them and on this day, she was high in the tree.

You can purchase my photos by emailing me at donnaridgway1  @hotmail.com (remove the space) or by shopping in my Etsy shop.  You can also purchase donna ridgway canvas prints on my Fine Art America store.

Chico's Bow Tie

I all ready need to post an update to this as I saw something I had to change, right after I scanned this. In the center of the bow tie, I added a shadow to deepen the look of the feathers. Chico is so pretty, I don't suppose I'm doing him justice, but I'm having the time of my life painting him.

Mad Macaw

Still painting my sons bird. He was looking mad here. It's really fun to paint different subjects and have new shapes and colors to use. Kind of makes you think about what you're doing, instead of painting by formulas.

There's still horse art, cow art, and wildlife art on my website. :)

Macaw

My son has a Macaw named Chico. I might have spelled his name wrong but it's pronounced the same. Chico and I got a little bit aquainted over Christmas. He finally came to me without complaint and would gladly eat out of my hand. Of course, he eats from anyone who will feed him, but it was fun to have him willingly step onto my arm.

This painting, posted this morning on ebay, for .50 starting price. Go place a bid now!

I took a lot of pictures of Chico, while I had the chance and I need to practise painting him so I can do a good painting for Johnnie. He wants a life size one.

You can see more paintings on my website, many of them are horse art.
