    I too love birds and your painting. Is the quote one of your own or from another source. I love the part I can see from the pic. Can you give us the whole quotation or where it might be found?

    Emily Dickenson
    Hope
    Hope is the thing with feathers
    That perches in the soul,
    And sings the tune--without the words,
    And never stops at all,

    And sweetest in the gale is heard;
    And sore must be the storm
    That could abash the little bird
    That kept so many warm.

    I've heard it in the chillest land,
    And on the strangest sea;
    Yet, never, in extremity,
    It asked a crumb of me.

    I love this little bird too. And the use of your original watercolour as background- brilliant!
    (I am the owner of your spunky green bird collage).
    And my mother and I are seriously considering some or all of your Art Unravelled workshops in August!!
