lovable bird paintings

Carolyn Shores Wright is a wonderful artist/illustrator, with fine, delicate brushwork technique in her watercolors; her forte is doing birds and flowers, with a good sense of balance and color blending.Carolyn's chubby birds are adorable, and very unique. They have very expressive eyes, and short, upturned beaks that give them almost the look of human babies. Being a hummingbird aficionado, I appreciate Carolyn's excellent depiction of these flying marvels, and her flowers are soft and flowing.The lovely paintings are surrounded by inspirational quotes, some from the Bible, and some by poets and writers of wisdom like Helen Keller and Charles Wesley. With a nice layout and semi-gloss finish, this little book is sweetness and light. "Faith goes up the stairs that love has built and looks out the window which hope has opened". Charles Spurgeon (pg. 12).
