"Kestrel" by Debra Tritt Kreiger

11"x15" watercolor on 140lb arches paper

 I love to paint wildlife, especially when I actually get to meet my subject. I met this beautiful kestrel at the Charleston Aquarium. They call him Phoenix because his talons were burned when he landed on a live wire. His accident prevents him from being released back into the wild. He was a joy to see and talk to! In the wild he would be a little thinner, but I chose to paint him as beautiful as I saw him.

I also incorporated a new technique I learned from Luke Buck which really gives it a painterly feel.

"Little Blue" by Debra Tritt Kreiger

8"x10" Acrylic on canvas

This is the second plein air painting I did while with my niece. We went to the Middletown boat launch with the Susquehanna Valley Plein Air Painters. The river was really high so I decided to paint this tree lined path right beside the river. I really liked the way the light takes you through the trees and if you look real close you'll see a little bluebird sitting on her house.

My niece painted a wonderful painting of the river. I believe it is going to be a gift for some one special!

This is a plein air painting painted from West Fairview park in Enola along the Susquehanna river.

I enjoyed using the oils and am planning on working with them a little more in the future. I believe she is hooked now and plans to do some plein air painting from her home in Philadelphia. Looking forward to seeing her work!

She is a real ham!!
