A day at the Wild Animal Park

We took three of our grandchildren to the Wild Animal Park in San Diego today. The park was overflowing with baby animals, nesting birds and a special butterfly exhibit! It was perfect weather and the kids had a great time. I took tons of pictures and brought along my trustee sketchbook. I took everything home and painted a few things. I was inspired by all the wildlife, and I do mean animals not grandkids, to paint. Here is one of the Lorikeets that the kids fed while there.

What a vibrant watery watercolour. He's got such a cheeky look in his eye!

What a wonderful painting. I too took my grandchildren to the Wild Animal Park a couple weeks ago and it was a blast. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous painting. Pam
