Title
Smug Bird Gossip
Artist
Betty Pieper
Medium
Painting - Mixed Water Media On Paper
Description
These feathered friends just seemed to emerge unbidden out of my water medium and I gave them green hats. I could see them in a child's room or maybe an adult with a sense of humor might like them. They come with an ivory mat. The paper has acrylic varnish.

Yes, but who is who (class wise)? To me they represent two phonies on equal footing no matter what they may think of each other! But primarily I thought of it as a fun piece.
Ryan Jorgensen
So much character in the piece Betty, charming with a undertone of humour. Can almost see a distinction of class between the two with your choice of colours, which also ties in well with the title. Beautiful work. F/L

Thanks, Joyce. I went to visit your site again...and admire your whimsy and skill. My favorite today was the classic "Jordan" which only goes to prove the range of your talents! Thanks, again.
Joyce Gebauer
A totally charming portrait of these two wonderful birds, sharing the latest gossip! It does have the same feeling of my "Gossip on the Bus" You were right Betty! F/V & L

Like these Funny Birds in human mood! Your dark colors look so soft and the water media creates beautiful texture effects.
Betty Pieper replied:
Thank you so much for the comments and the specifics of what you find interesting. In turn I like your abstracts...especially Reflections which seems serious and fun at the same time.
Betty Pieper
Thank you. I get the feeling that one of my artist friends thinks this kind of thing distracts from being a serious artist... which she says I am. I had no choice, these guys just showed themselves and I loved them. I let them 'sit' for a week or so and then gave them hats as a baptismal rite to be themselves.
