Here's the plant! I planted it as a seedling last fall and am so happy it's got so many flower buds

My Lanceleaf Coreopsis bloomed today! I rushed outside to go paint it, but I was baking in the sun 🥵 and now it's time to cook dinner, so this is my progress so far. Got each basic part finished so I can self-reference the colors later

Always a treat to actually see a Scarlet Tanager!

My exhibit Seasons on the Wing features birds found in MN throughout the year, but I also unintentionally included 2 pieces that show tamarack cones at different times of year!

My Ohio Spiderwort started blooming this weekend, but I didn't get out fast enough to paint it because it was so hot the petals melted by 11! Today was cooler and I was able to go paint them.

Finished painting my coreopsis last night!

If you're in Minnesota, I hope you can go check out Seasons on the Wing at The Trailhead Gallery of Theodore Wirth Park!

The latest in my Life List Series, a White-crowned Sparrow! I found one a few weeks ago in a crab apple tree, which surprised me as I was expecting it to be a warbler. So I decided to commemorate that "huh" moment in this painting!

Funny enough, the actual bird was very well hidden and not at the top of the tree 😆
