Rocky Mountain Warrior, a Ram by Wildlife Artist Sandra Reeves Cutrer

At the beginning of the nineteenth century, there were between 1.5 million to two million bighorn sheep in North America. Today, there are less than 70,000. That saddens me! What a beautiful beast, and such a pleasure to watch,photograph,and paint.Hopefully we can take correct measures to insure these big sheep keep their rightful place in our future generations!

"American Goldfinch" by Astrid Paustian

Oil on archival board, 7" x 5", $125.-
The Goldfinches have returned to our yard for their annual feast on our red sunflowers.
I was lucky enough to get a photo of this little guy yesterday morning, and had to paint him right away. I do enjoy watching these beautiful birds as they perform their acrobatics, swaying on top of the heavy sunflower blossoms to extract the seeds. It takes the young goldfinches a few days to learn this skill, under loud protest, since it is so much easier to be fed by their parents.

"Woodpecker and Sunflower" by Astrid Paustian

Oil on canvas, 10" x 8", $325.-
Goldfinches were not the only birds who enjoyed the Sunflowers in our yard last August.
Chickadees, Sparrows, House Finches, and the resident pair of Downy Woodpeckers also joined in the feast.
I did take some liberties with the background colors as you have noticed.
