Montana is known as Big Sky Country. But my ranch in Idaho sits next to the Continental Divide with Montana on the other side. So we get a lot of Big Skies too.
The sunsets quickly change from golden to fire before setting on the mountain horizon.
When it rains, sometimes one can see double or triple rainbows.
Which birds do you want me to paint? I paint a lot of North American birds because it's my home. But I love painting many birds from all over the world.
I love songbirds because they are so cute and fat and sweet.
I've been painting more kinds of birds like geese, owls, seabirds and more. I'm opened to suggestions and would love to hear from you!
Check out some of my paintings on hardwood panels at ChristenberryCollections.
There are bird paintings on purple heart wood, cherry, maple, and birch.
I used a clear gesso so parts of the natural wood grain shines through.
