Wow, what a gorgeous day!  The sun was shining onto the new fallen snow and the 100 or so red polls were feeding on black sunflower seeds.  It's a job just to keep the feeders filled up.

This is the second day of painting the "Jaguar & Tigers".  This morning, I took a 'snippet' picture before I started painting again so you could see the progress.  First of all, I started glazing with very thin watercolor on the Tiger Lilies and then here and there on the Jaguar.  I started working on the spots of the cat, until I could not focus any longer.  I also worked on the eyes a little, because I wanted to be able to start seeing the personality.  I still have more work to do on them.  I took another picture at the end of the day.  It should give you an idea of what transpired.  So far, this has been a lot of fun.  I hope you enjoy it!
