Beginnings

It is ever so evident that I need to be doing my art and selling my stuff. Today, just to see if I could do it, I set the task of creating a scarf that could accessorize with most anything. The images below are the same scarf, photographed on a black background:

and a white background:

Same scarf. Different backgrounds. This is the soft 'feminine' idea of a scarf. I don't know if it needs more. I don't think so. Going to sleep on it though.
This is printed on silk gauze. 36'X42".
I could just sell it as cloth too.

I want to fall asleep, I fell asleep while watching a video and now, I just want to continue with that idea, it is a good one.

David and I have been taking a beginner's birding class with the NAZAS. We went on our first field trip yesterday, to the Kachina Wetlands. I fell in love with the Black Phoebe. David fell in love with the Yellow-headed Blackbird, also very pretty. The Red-winged Blackbird has a yellow epaulet here, back east, I don't think so. Cornell says some subspecies do not have the yellow.
I have a soft spot for passerines.
We saw lots of ducks! American Coot, Red-headed Duck, Ring-necked Duck (whose ring is really on it's beak), Cinnamon Teal just to name a few.
As a prize I took home what I think is a Violet-green Swallow feather.
