How The Helican-Pelican

I picked the pelican, even though I think it will be a very popular choice this week.

It brought to mind this poem:
A wonderful bird is the pelican,
His bill will hold more than his belican.
He can take in his beak
Food enough for a week,
But I’m darned if I see how the helican.

1 Corinthians 10^:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. The host, EP, provided the photos.

As host this week, EP issued a challenge to paint using a palette knife.
I had been contemplating making a palette knife painting for YEARS. I would often apply paint with a knife to portions of my work.
But this is my first ever 100% knife painting, Thanks to you, EP!
I don't know how successful it is, but the point is, I finally did it!

Thanks for looking!

I would very much like to add that Don Micheal, Jr. has been my inspiration in the unique world of palette knife painting. I have followed his wonderful work for several years. Please do yourself a favor and check him our HERE.
