Something Like Spring

size: 9.25" x 12"

This piece pushed up out of me like the grass when we were have a few very fine days here in Montana. I felt like after a winter of using brown white and grey paint, a great need for green. The figure in the painting came to me in my sketch book one evening while I was drawing, and I liked her a lot. There is texture in the paining due to paper I collaged underneath. The part under the bird looks kind of like duct tape, but it's wall paper.
