This is a quick sketch of someone else’s painting.
Sandhill Crane
I made this painting for a teacher at my school, who substituted for two months. The paints didn’t work like oil paints are supposed to. I was inspired to do sandhill cranes by the background on my art teacher’s computer. My Mom says that this sandhill crane looks like a Pepsi bird.

Lone Cypress
This is my third oil painting. I took a class, and we painted it from a photograph. The cypress tree is looked at from one angle and the mountains from another. My art teacher says that that is artistic license.

Spaghetti Ostrich
We had just finished eating spaghetti for dinner, and I was the last one at the table and had a couple of noodles left. With the couple of noodles, I cut up a couple for the short pieces, and the rest I just moved into place with my fork. I never once touched the sphaghetti noodles with my hand, just my fork.
(My little brother and sister make food shapes out of bread. They bite the bread into the shape of the states they know–Oklahoma, Idaho, Florida–the ones that have unique shapes.)

War Dog Monument
( June 2008 )
This is a national monument in remembrance of war dogs. Our library had a project where we had to draw a picture of a national monument. I was wondering if there was a national monument that was an animal, and then I found this one. I decided I wanted to do it for my library project.
