A Styling Wood Stork Rendition
So sorry for my absence! After leaving Florida, we stopped in South Carolina for a week, took a break from blogging to enjoy our last days, the long travel home, then once home….WOW….everything/everyone wants your attention, my office network had a data crash, I spent couple long days trying to restore files, yada yada yada….
Only a few recent files were lost, I was very lucky.
Don’t you hate to return from a vacation and jump back into reality?!! 😲 Hobbies always go to the wayside…..Enough of that!
A few days ago, my wonderful blogger friend, Laura at CreateArtEveryDay.com once again selected one of my close-up faces for her 100 Face Challenge she began in January.
Meet my Wood Stork taken in Florida a few weeks ago….
followed by Laura’s #55 Face Challenge Wood Stork artistic rendition!

Isn’t he lovely! I can’t get over how awesome Laura can draw eyes, capturing the light, giving the subject life and personality. Laura created this rendition using Neocolors. On her blog, she explains what medium she uses on each drawing she creates, in addition to mixing it up on her blog with other works of art. I love her flair, her inspiration to others, and her style of making you smile. Check out her blog to add a smile to your day!
Thank you again, Laura, for inspiring me with a selection of one of my photos! What an honor!
She is talented, and so creative. This came out beautifully.
I’m so glad you made it home safely, and didn’t loose a lot of files in the crash. That’s no fun!
Thanks, Deborah; youre very kind!
Just tellin’ the way it is. You’re very talented! 🙂
Thank you, friend. ❤️
MP! xx
Laura is! Thanks Deborah, it was so hard to have to come back to reality! But I’ll be going to see my grandkids tomorrow finally, so excited! 🙂
🙂 Oh how fun! Lots of hugs and kisses will ensue I’m sure.
Who knows, maybe I will try to do some paintings of my photos.I like this rendition.
I hope you do! It’s so rewarding and fun. I’m so glad you enjoyed my artwork. I grabbed a few quick minutes just to get a sense of this beautiful creature. Donna’s photos never fail to inspire me. Do try it, art is such a rewarding hobby!
Laura did an awesome job! I wish I could do something like this, may try one day myself. 🙂
Amazing Bird…………..
Thank you!
what an absolutely amazing creature! Thanks for sharing! And of course love our Laura’s version too! 🙂
Donnas photos are amazing, love those water birds! Thanks Jodi. 💜
To think ancient times legend said these huge birds delivered babies! Thanks Jodi, you are right about Laura’s version! 🙂
You and Laura are two talented ladies! Blessed to know you both. 🙂
You’re too kind, thanks Kathy. Donnas photos and yours take care of all the birds I feel inclined to draw! You both inspire me daily!
Same with you, Kathy! I took photos last week in SC of a female bluebird and thought of you and yours. 🙂
Love your wood stork close-up, Donna. Laura sure has a fun take on him. 🙂
Thank you, and I’m so glad you liked it! Donna’s photos inspire me constantly! Love her work.
Thanks Sylvia! Laura really did a great job, she makes it look so easy, doesn’t she? 🙂
Thank you, Donna! You always make me feel like a rock star artist! If I had not been buried in tax returns all day, I’d have come in sooner and told you how sweet you are. I’m so glad it makes you happy when I try and render your lovely photos. You’re so kind to mention my blog. Have a wonderful weekend, my friend! 💜
You are a rock star artist! So funny, I was buried in tax returns today too. LOL Wasn’t fun though, can’t imagine yours was either. 😉 Have a wonderful Sunday as well, my friend! 💜
You’re very kind, as always. So gracious and generous with your time and comments. Thank you so much! 😎💜
Beautiful linework!
Laura is awesome with her lines and strokes, so creative! 🙂
What fun Donna! Love the colors she used. Your space looks amazing as always. You changed your theme since the last time I was here. Very dramatic. (:
Thanks Margie! I’m testing my own WP skills! lol Thanks for stopping by!
