Painting A Vintage Bird Cage


Welcome.  I am so happy that you stopped by.  My garden gate is always open for you to come in and sit and relax while I share with you the inspiration s for my art.  I have been decorating my garden for Fall and putting pumpkins in some of my vintage bird cages - they remind me of my Grandmother's charming bird cages that she had for her singing Canery birds.

Let's join Bentley my Studio Assistant in the garden to look for inspiration.








                                                                Finding inspiration . . . . . .





                                                                            Here  . . . . . . .


                                                                         There  . . . . . .





                                                               Everywhere . . . . .




I wanted to use a red bird cage, red chair and Sunflowers in a large companion painting to go in one of the bedrooms with red and white buffalo check and floral accents.






Here is the completed painting with the red bird cage, red  chairs and Sunflower.  I also added a rusty iron bird.


Thank you for stopping by.  I love hearing from you and sincerely appreciate your visits, e-mails, comments and those who follow my blog.  My computer has been fixed and I should be back to blogging once a week.  Please let me know if  you have any questions or would like to see me paint something special.

Have a lovely week, Blessings, Erin

Your red vintage bird cage reminded me of the yellow canaries we had when I was a little girl. How I loved to hear them sing their sweet song! Thanks for the memory. Hugs Evie
