Wee Little Bird












"Wee Little Bird", mixed media collage, s.a. cunningham


What the heck!? Autumn is in the air...so very soon. The first of August the smell of Fall was in the air. Don't get me wrong I love Autumn, the pumpkins, Halloween, the feel of it all....the light that carries the day. But with Fall comes a certain sense of panic...Do I have the fire wood ready, do the kids have enough warm clothes?...The schedule changes and I am not ready for the change to come quite yet....we wait so long for summer and this one has been fleeting. Spring was late and Fall is early....

 Well...it was a long cold Winter..and Spring. Here is some of the work I got done. Will be moving it from my living space out into the world soon. Always bittersweet. I hope they find good homes. Busy getting some images ready to drop off tomorrow for the Eastport Gallery. The opening reception is Sat. June 8th at 5pm. the public is invited. Here are some snippets of images I am getting ready for the gallery and beyond.
