A new Singularity sketch inspired by A Sublime Sunday and a sort of #walkwithme
A new sketch idea for a Singularity painting.
This sketch
And it's subsequent colouring:
Were definitely inspired not only by my Singularity obsession, but also by my surroundings. So what better thing to share here on this #sublimsunday and the sort of #walkwithme.
Really, it is more of a wobble with me, with my broken toe, but you get the general idea. And I'm lucky that I haven't to walk far to see my inspiration.
Snowy Egrets and Blue Herons return to our beach each Summer and fish and play along our shore.
I am always happy and grateful for the joy of these birds and the luck of getting to live so close to their Summer habitat. It's easy to see inspiration from these majestic creatures when they so happily perch on our rocks out front.
Here a pair of blue heron and one snowy egret are sharing the Spitting rock
and I was able to snap some photos whilst enjoying my new terrace.
A close in zoom shows the beauty of these birds.
The curvilinear forms their bodies take when they are preening is art unto itself.
You can see how easily they would end up in my artwork with such beauty. And at 'feeding time' which depends on the tide and winds for our own personal viewing, it can be an amazing cacophony of sight and sound.
Here they are hunting slowly, whilst the terns dive and plunge, there is no stalking for them, just dive and go.
Thus, this #walkwithme is not very far, from my newly made terrace to the edge of our lawn, but oh the things I get to see on a day such as this.
Well, I hope your Sunday is as sublime as mine has been. I hope you get a moment to watch nature in some way, whether it is birds in the wild countryside or seashore, or the antics of pigeons or insects on an urban windowsill, do take the time to look.

Wow! the close ups of the birds are great!!
Thanks @barracudadiaries I wished you were here yesterday, they were out in droves, so many birds and such great viewings.
What an interesting image with a girl and a bird!
It always amazes me how coordinated these birds are, with all the sharp, long beaks and claws and knarly knees and such. Hardly EVER poke out an eye or other damage preening and such. Seems an errant bill would poke a hole in a wing or something now and then. Maybe it's best I'm not a bird, eh? Very nice photos of them on the rocks, nice to have that out your front window, or off the new deck/chaise area. You have a nice corner of the world there, to hang in, that's for sure.
I truly appreciate it and the birds are a great distraction. I have to tear myself away sometimes.
I think they must get into scraps at least, as one of the pair of Osprey last year (we always have an icreasing number each year as I think their offspring come back to nest in same places) we had one we called lefty because it had a few feathers missing from it's left wing, so we could always spot him out front or when we were off kayaking or swimming round the various inlets round here.
I love the strokes on this! Also, how that robotic hand just lurks there :D
I hope you'll get better and on both of your feet soon!
Yeah, I wanted to be as if you couldn't decide, is it helping her or pushing her under?
Yeah, it definitely looks like it's still wondering if it's worth it
