In all my paintings, so far, the turkey is always a big element. Today I wanted to try to capture that they sometimes actually look pretty small in particular habitats. A scene like this is my dream hunt (warm sunshine, big trees,enough leaves to hear them walking, about eleven-thirty, big old struttin' gobbler). I think I just went on a mini turkey hunt! You can tell the season is getting closer! The sun is shining, both Eric and Daniel are coming home with their women(especially little Clara) and I'm done for the week. Life is good!
