"Chester" by Lynda Cookson
"Chester" the Goose emerged out of nowhere. I felt like painting, sat down, and along he came! I fell in love with him, so he stayed.
He is still for sale ... and is not very large so is eminently affordable. Oil on Paper and a size of no more than A5 (double postcard size).

"Ralph the Rooster" by Lynda Cookson
The depth of color with inks is perfect for roosters and cockerel ... catching the miriad of colors in their feathers, with flicks of ink suggesting the dust kicked up by these feisty birds.
"Ralph the Rooster" can be purchased by CLICKING HERE or by clicking on the images or their titles.

"Owl" by Lynda Cookson
This little fella sold some time ago but as I'm feeling the urge to paint more owls, I thought he needed another airing. Please keep an eye on www.WildSummers.com as well as my eBay Store for more owls .....

STALKING EGRET,6x8, OIL, SOLD
I think waterbirds are so interesting to watch. Here in Florida we have such a large variety of them. I would not attempt to name them all, but I'm pretty sure this is an egret, maybe even a Snowy Egret. I think they are one of the prettier birds around and when they have their plumes up they are almost as showy as a peacock.
I enjoyed painting this little piece, especially layering on the thick creamy paint on his back. Almost as good as eating ice cream!

Pink Splash, by New York artist, Celeste Plowden
8x10 acrylic on archival canvas panel, UV varnish,
SOLD
SOLD
I learned the art of acrylic and pastel painting through private instruction, after having spent my career as a designer of printed fabrics in the New York market place. I am a graduate of the College of Design, Art and Architecture at the University of Cincinnati, with a major in the History of Art, 1977. Later, I studied printed textile design at Parsons School of Design, in New York. Immediately afterward, I began free lance work for several design studios in the garment district of NYC, where I did re-coloration work for printed apparel fabrics, and sold my own designs through Bread and Butter Designs,also located in New York. In addition, during the 1980's and 1990's, I designed a number of needlecraft and stencil books for Dover Publications. Currently, I am working on a series of exotic birds and other animals done in acrylic paint, with a palette knife, for texture and brilliant color. I consider my paintings to be representational or impressionistic in nature, and I use fantasy colors because what I see often makes me feel these colors,and what would make an interesting composition, rather than using realistic colors.

Daily Painting, Oil, "The Gull", 6x8" SOLD
If you live close to the sea, these guys are a part of your everyday life. This one looks a little serious, like he has a job to do and is going to get it done.
When my grandson was four, we went to the beach for a picnic. When I casually mentioned to him that the sea gulls were after his sandwich, he gobbled it down. Unfortunately, he didn't want to go to the beach for years afterwards. The mere mention of the "beach" conjured up thoughts of a bird attack ala Alfred Hitchcock! Bad Grandma!!
