I finally have finished this watercolor of the American Kestrel Falcon. This painting is 10 x 14 inches. It has a nice glow of light. I’m very happy with this one.
I have titled it “The next generation” as it is an image of a young one that has left the nest.
I had a surprise this past weekend, as I found a blurb about me on ‘Tack n’ Talk’ Blog. I’ll be doing a full interview with them later this week. You can read the blurb here: http://tackandtalk.wordpress.com
I have another interview that you can view and read here at the Equinest : http://www.theequinest.com/debbie-flood
And one more interview that is waiting in the wings with the Editors. This one is an international interview, coming from Australia! I will post when this one goes live. It is for an online magazine, so waiting is most common with these venues.
I see I have a lot more followers here on my Blog. I want to thank you all for following my art and blog. For more art works you may visit my website at http://www.debfloodart.com
I also have another blog, which showcases my ‘Painting a child a day’. You can visit that Blog at http://www.paintingachildaday.com
I also have a public FaceBook page that you can become a Fan of and keep up to date with the things I am doing. The link is in the sidebar of my Blog here.
Have a great week!

Today I worked on this painting a bit more. Mostly on the left side (wing) area. On Saturday I worked a bit on the fence post. I have to work in sections and in areas that keep me interested at the time…or I could get bored with it. If I get bored with it, then there is a chance of not executing a very good job and the spontaneity of it will be lost.
I have a nice interview~article online about me, my art and my passions. You can read it at http://www.theequinest.com/debbie-flood

The Downtown Waterville, Maine, Arts Festival will be postponed, for Sunday, July 19, 9am-4pm.
The weather forecast for Saturday, July 18 doesn’t look good at all.
So, come on out Sunday and see over 70 of us Artists line the streets with our booths and many other festivities are planned too. This is Waterville’s 40th anniversary of the Arts Fest!
Yesterday I started this watercolor painting of an American Kestrel Falcon. This is a very young one, presumably learning to fly. The image was captured by my sis-in-law, not too far from my home.
I’ve included a close up of the head, so you can see the detail that I am puting into the feathers and the eye.
This is an image of the progress, as I still have a long ways to go with this one.
Hope to see you on Sunday, July 19, at my booth in Waterville, Maine!

Tuesday I took my Belfast’s past series of watercolors (Three of the latest paintings) to have them photographed for Giclee reproductions. It was so hot! The city is about an hours drive one way from me. On my way home I saw this large bird watching over a marsh and river area near a farm. I couldn’t see it well enough to figure out if it was an Eagle or an Osprey. I turned around and went back to take some photos. I’m so glad I took my camera along with me!
I took a lot of photos, with different settings. I couldn’t see what I was taking, so I tried it all!
When I got home, I checked out the photos and saw that it was an Osprey!
I also looked at the thermometer and it was 90 degrees out there! Was it really April in Maine?!
Today, it is April in Maine again…it couldn’t get up to 60 and the wind blew cold.
But I got a lot done in the studio today!
Check out my other blog http://www.paintingachildaday.com This week is Kentucky Derby Theme week with horses and kids painted daily in watercolors!
