Description
In thinking how to honor a young proprietor who sells my art at her gallery I envisioned several "Katbird" scenarios. This is the first I committed to paper!
What ARE these guys thinking, one inside, one outside - both quite new to the world?

Love your take on the western 'stand off', Ryan! I did a LOT of drawing as a youngster but have shied away as an adult thinking, "Drawing is drawing, painting is painting', but in this one...for a friend who owns a gallery where I exhibit (Katbird Shoppe)...I decided to combine the two. I was going to make cards saying "Here's Looking at You, Kid." but I like your idea better.

Love the simplicity of this work with the contrast of light to dark tones. Almost has a western stand off look to the scene 'the quick draw', matched also by the colours. Can visualise this work is a contemporary fine art collection. Well done Betty! F/L

This is such a sweet ink. I posted for friends to see and it got lots of positive feedback, as I expected.

Oh, thank you for doing that! I don't do social media so I especially appreciate when people do this. Good to hear that people like it. I was thinking of making cards saying "Here's Looking At You".

What remarkably generous comments, Joyce. Most times I think life passes me by and I feel out of touch so it's easy to be modest! On this work...it just came so easily right after I first talked to Kathy and realized what she is doing for SAS and art in Schenectady. No way I could match her classy logo but I hoped she would enjoy this original. The bird was quick and easy from years of watching our cocky crows.
