Tonight, when I was painting the blue/pink hydrangea in my back yard, I heard a mother Robin chirping to her baby. This conversation was going on for quite some time.
The sun had already gone down behind the mountain leaving just enough light to see. I was trying to finish "just a little more" when all of a sudden, the baby Robin flew right onto the palette that I was holding in my hand! It's tiny feet had plopped right into the wet paint.
"Well, just look at you!" I said. It's tiny body was about 16 inches from my face. The baby looked up at me cocking it's head and sat for about fifteen seconds. Hearing it's mother chirp again it flew away.
That's what I call getting into my work.
