A to Z Challenge
Today the Blog Challenge is the letter "E". I chose an eagle for my Painting of the Day subject. Using photos I took in Sedona, Arizona while I was working on my novel Eagle Rising, I created my painting for today. The beauty and serenity of the Red Rock Country inspires me every time I see it. This painting is smaller than the last two, 14" x 11" and is acrylic on stretched canvas. | ||

Monti, that's brilliant!
Alex, thank you!
Another lovely one, Monti, but I am still FULL of the images from our latest SNAPSHOT book...Scenic James River...just can't get that out of my mind!

Wow, Billie! I'm so glad you like our new book. I love anything with pictures in it!
You've really captured the movement and that sense of freedom that the sight of an eagle in flight inspires. Just lovely!
Really exquisite eagle ... Beautiful combination of colors!
LOVE Sedona. We used to live in Arizona, and I'll never forget the time my husband took me up in a Cessna for the first time. We flew over Sedona. Even more mesmerizing from the air!
That's a beautiful painting! I love the colors.
I love the colors in this painting. Very beautiful.
Thank you, Kern. I do love this pose which I found in a piece of sculpture.
Thank you, Leovi. Glad you like the colors.
Margo, Sedona is one of my favorite places in all the world. The colors there are unforgettable.
Golden Eagle, thank you!
Kerri, I'm happy you like the colors. Thanks for visiting!
Another gorgeous picture!
Thanks, Life in a Small Town!
Wow, another wonderful painting! You should do a show with these once you're all finished.
This is so beautiful!
Superb job. That style is just awesome. I am blown away that you can do a painting a day and do it so well.
You will have the A-Z 2013 Gallery when we're done. I suspect it will be a great showing.

I remember the first time I saw an eagle in the wild. It was at a fish camp in Florida. Absolutely stunning.
The only eagles I see around here are the type that can't ever win a Super Bowl.
I love the painting, Monti!
I have read 2 posts on Eagles and 2 posts on Elephants today. I think the painting is amazing, I envy that talent. Great post, I am following from blogging A to Z. I just added you on GFC.
