Last week I featured an artist who studies the human figure. This week, I would like to share with you the art of Rose Tanner.

Rose is an avian artist, originally from Banff, Alberta. She owned an organic lavender farm for many years, and has a deep and abiding love of nature. The personality and beauty she portrays in her paintings has had me paying more attention to the crowds gathered outside my own windows each morning. I admit I had missed all of what was happening right in front of me.

Rose works primarily in oil on linen as her favored medium.

I want to share my absolute favorite painting here. Every time I look at it, I smile.

For more of Rose’s beautiful work, please visit her website at http://www.rosetanner.com. You can also follow Rose on Twitter at @birdfineart

I hope you all enjoy her paintings as much as I do!

Blessings to you all…
