"Black-chinned Hummingbird" by Debra Tritt Kreiger

7"x9" watercolor on Arches Board

This is another western bird called the black-chinned hummingbird, who I met in Arizona. In the Red Rock State Park they have hummingbird feeders set up and all kinds of different hummingbirds come to feed. I could have stayed there all day! I just love to paint these little birds. Although they are small they have so much character. If interested in purchasing this painting please e-mail me at debra@debkreiger.com.

Gray Breasted Jay by Debra Tritt Kreiger

6.5x9.5 watercolor on crescent board

We recently took a tip to Sedona, AZ. While hiking the red rocks I happened to photograph this western Jay, which in doing my research have concluded it is a Gray Breasted Jay. Armed with a lot of references I created this painting with the rocky earth colors as the background. I would say he/she is a beauty! Very grateful for the opportunity to see some of the western birds. More to come!

"A Rare Moment" by Debra Tritt-Kreiger

8.5"x11 watercolor on Arches Paper

As I have begun painting more paintings of all the different birds I have encountered and photographed, I found that this was indeed a rare find. I encountered this bird on a beach in New Jersey. In my research I believe it is a Bristle-Thighed Curlew which is in the sandpiper family and their numbers are decreasing due to climate change and the loss of habitat. Really happy to bring this bird into my painting world and help people realize we all share one planet and we need to take care of it.
