Three Watercolors Find a Home

Foliate Oak Literary Magazine, which published my poem about biting an apple in 2013, was kind enough to publish some recent watercolors of mine. Two are from Ireland and one is of a Monarch butterfly emerging in our backyard in St. Louis. Now to find homes for my other stray poems and paintings!

Orono Sketches, Part 2

Well, I don't like this one as much as the one I did at NUI-Galway, and I paid for the dusk setting in blood collected by the diligent campus mosquitoes, but I'm glad I got to give watercolor a shot here.  This is Stevens Hall at U. Maine-Orono.

Watercolor: NUI Galway Quadrangle

I added watercolor to a sketch from today. Not necessarily finished, but probably all that I'll have time for while I'm here. I didn't actually do this at twilight, but I have seen the place at twilight, and I like it better that way.

A didgeridoo! As the Galway Arts Festival kicks into gear, the buskers get more and more inventive and frenzied.

Lastly: I did not know this mammal, called a pangolin, existed. It is apparently the only mammal that has keratin scales, and it is also known as the scaly anteater.
