This morning, we are kicking off a brand new giveaway with artist Renee Anne. We are giving away this original 4 x 4 inch watercolor painting, which is actually quite special, because it was painted exclusively for papernstitch. How lucky are we? And retails for $20. The bird was painted from Renee’s own photographs from her front yard in Sault Ste Marie, Ontario.
And because Renee has not yet named this painting, she has decided to let you all name it for her. The winning title will receive the original painting. Pretty cool, huh?
Here are all the details on how to enter…
Title this work of art. Come up with a name for this, currently, nameless 4 x 4 bird painting and include it in the comments below. You may enter up to two times. Each entry should include a different, possible title.
*Giveaway will end on Monday, September 20th at 11:59 pm eastern.*
























What a beautiful piece of art! I would name it something like: he waits by my window

Gramma T. commented on September 6th, 2010 at 5:08 pmI generally like giving photos of animals or other creatures person names. I’d go with Cooper for this one. He seems like a Cooper to me. :]

It’s a play on word with the French name of this bird, “gros bec” which means “big beak” but can also be translated “big kiss”.
I love birds and I haven’t seen this kind of bird since I was little ;o(
