Take A Word - Blackbird

I decided to go with a self-portrait!    I'm feeling a little grumpy and confined to the nest this week, but I FINALLY got shovelled out today.  Maybe tomorrow I can fly!!!   Thanks for visiting!

  3. This is so funny, Bev! If you do this when grumpy, people will ask to be grumpy more often. Good delightful flights are waiting for you!

  5. Hey, that's a question I often ask myself. Bev, I love your gorgeous little nestling and his jaunty hat. A perfect picture for this week's theme. Fantastic.

  6. Not too often blackbirds sit still, so glad there is something useful they can do. Can you tell I don't like blackbirds? But I do like your artwork, Bev...excellent as always.

  13. What a wonderfully original collage this is! I love your choice of bird--all ruffled up with cold, or is it indignation?

  14. Well Bev, I think this says it all. He does look a bit fed up, but then I see his quirky hat too and I know he hasn't lost his sense of humour and nor have you. Great piece my friend.

  17. Bev, you are a riot! This poor bird looks like I feel sometimes, too! The rough sketchy image in juxtaposition to the smooth background is perfect. I love the key in the berries.

  21. Fantastic piece, Bev - love the hat on the bird, such a delightful touch! (I know what you mean about being housebound - I've been cranky too - need to see the sunshine again and feel some warmth! Hope Indiana warms up soon too! Hugs =)
