Chickadee in the Snow


I just finished this 5x7 pastel painting inspired by the Wilderness Art Challenge Blog with photos posted by artist, Gary Keimig.  Once a month he posts a photo and artists from far and near post their version of his challenge!  It's allways fun and thought provoking to see so many different versions of one photograph. While painting my chicadee, I was thinking about  the snow  we have here in this part of the world and I had to make my little change to the subject matter to express my love of our Wyoming winter!
If you want to see more Chicadees check out Gary's blog for the rest of the month at http://wildernessartchallenge.blogspot.com/
