SINGS THE SKY DOWN... INDIGO BUNTING (Note Card)- by Sandy Hokanson. "An electric blue spark arcs across a spring field igniting summer's stage of vibrant chaos and sings the sky down in a contest of colors."
Poem on backside of note cards reads: First light tiptoes across the spring blossoms, and is startled by an uncommon blue, wake up! It's a brand new day
Sandy: "For many years I painted in a realistic style using acrylics or watercolors. Now I prefer the challenge of focusing less on every feather and more on creating a clean design of each bird." "Some of my finished works are created by making detailed drawing using permanent inks which are then scanned into my computer. Others are hand drawn directly into the computer using either a mouse or a special pen and pad. Next I'll create a unique palette of colors to layer over the drawings. Each color is a separate layer - which means some pieces can have up to 25 layers or more. The end result is a crisp, graphic illustration."
