5 out of 5 starsI'm thrilled with how much of a success it was purchasing this painting as a gift for my parents... "The messenger bird made it safe from your home into our hearts conveying your lovely hand written message. It is touching, meaningful and very beautiful. The watercolor work is stunning. The painting now hangs in a portion of a wall that had been empty for 10 full years - the perfect completion to our dining room decor. You might not see it from the picture but the frame has tons of grey which is lovely as it mimics the grey feathers of the bird. I really love the color of the frame as it completely enhances the beauty of the art. We love it- thank you thank you!"
I've been a patron of Rebecca's work for a number of years- it's always a GREAT experience buying from this shop. My own home is filled with Dresser's work. -

5 out of 5 starsThis lovely painting arrived in pristine condition--very well packaged--and even more beautiful in person that in the photo (of course). Delivered quickly and already on our wall, it makes us smile.

5 out of 5 starsI had a wren spend all winter huddled on a rafter in the corner of my porch. I enjoyed seeing him settled In for the night. By the time I got out there each morning he had already left for the day. He was a fusser but I enjoyed having him as a guest. This little picture will be a great reminder. The photo captured the wren close up and in detail, great colors. Nice touches of kindness from seller that makes you feel valued. Also fast shipping. Thank you!

Nature-Inspired Art ... handmade and original... from my heart and soul to your walls and home
My work is inspired by the life I see around me, and that is the beautiful life of the woods, the sky, the mountains, the birds and the wildlife. I believe strongly in protecting our environment, our treasured wild places and wildlife. This is why I focus on nature in my artwork, aiming to express its beauty and importance and to share it with others. When someone purchases my art, it's an uplifting moment for me because it means that my work, and hence my focus, has connected with someone else, and there is much value in that. I believe each piece of art expresses its own spirit and soul ... and somehow it will find its way to the person to whom it calls.
I hope you will enjoy looking through my shop here on Etsy. Perhaps something will call to you. Perhaps the art here will simply give you a moment of beauty, a chance to smile, a time to reflect. And that is okay too.

Owner, Artist
I listen to the music in the world around me - in the songs of birds, in the rhythms of the seasons, in the voices of people and animals I love. These things influence the way I create art, and I find myself knee deep in their beauty.

Frequently asked questions
Custom and personalized orders
I am happy to create a custom painting for you. Simply contact me with your interests and needs, and we can get started on a piece that will be perfect for you and your home or for a gift.
Gift wrapping and packaging
All of my art is carefully and lovingly packaged to keep it safe while it travels to you. I also work hard to prepare a package that you will be delighted to receive and open. If you purchase something to give as a gift and would like it gift-wrapped, simply let me know and I will be sure to make it extra special and to include a gift tag and note.
Care instructions
My acrylic paintings are finished with at least two coats of varnish to protect the artwork from harmful UV rays, dust and dirt. All you need to do is gently wipe them from time to time with a dry, soft cloth. My unframed watercolors are sealed inside clear, archival pouches upon completion and adequate dry time. They are shipped to you this way. I recommend acid-free mats and glare-free glass when you mat and frame them. If I have framed them already, you can rest assured that they are given the ultimate care in mat and frame choice.
Sizing details
Each listing lets you know what size the artwork is. Please be sure to read the detailed description for each listing you are interested in so you can be certain that the size of the painting is what you are looking for and will fit your needs.
