Standing Guard

I don't see many robins in our neighborhood but I have fond memories from up north where we saw many of them.  I think we're all familiar with robins egg blue as a color that is quite special and appealing. So, too,  the beautifully colored eggs of robins give us the good news that spring is finally arriving.   Well, if we were lucky enough to have a nest that we could peek into.  In truth, there is something very elemental about nests, eggs and birds that relates to the seasons and also to the continuity of life.  I truly enjoy painting them.
